Abstract
Four strains of Scenedesmus parisiensls Chodat were studied in xenic and axenic culture in 3 media as well as in cultures incubated in sterile vessels in nature. Organized coenobia are usually produced but these may have merely short spines, spines and serrate edges, or lack wall ornamentation. Because the serrate edge is either not formed or cannot be readily detected in most cases, it is not a satisfactory morphological feature for delimiting this species. In laboratory studies it is noted that S. parisiensis might be confused with S. denticulatus rather than S. brasiliensis. Inasmuch as both xenic and axenic cultures of the 4 strains produced similar results, S. parisiensis can be readily characterized.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
