The present study describes the morphology, taxonomy, and distribution of species belonging to the diatom genus
Rhizosolenia
in Korea’s marine coastal waters. From September 2008 to February 2010, we collected phytoplankton samples at 30 sites along the Korean coastline and studied them by light and scanning electron microscopy. We found 6 rhizosolenid genera in our samples:
Rhizosolenia, Dactyliosolen, Guinardia, Pseudosolenia, Proboscia,
and
Neocalyptrella
. In the present paper, we studied the following rhizosolenid species and compared them with congeners:
R. pungens, R.fallax, R. imbricata, Rhizosolenia
sp. 1, and
Rhizosolenia
sp. 2. The morphology of
R. pungens
exhibits important diagnostic characteristics in its girdle segment structure in the column and in its external process. To distinguish
R. fallax
and
R. imbricata
, the most important characteristics are the striation and the velum structure.
R. pungens
occurred in our samples all along the Korean coast. Only rarely did we find
R. imbricata
in the samples and at low abundance. We recorded
R. fallax, Rhizosolenia
sp. 1 and
Rhizosolenia
sp. 2 for the first time in Korean waters, but they rarely occurred.
INTRODUCTION
The diatom genus
Rhizosolenia
Brightwell (1858) is one of the most important marine diatom genera and occasionally dominates the phytoplankton biomass in highly productive oceanic regions (Sundström 1986). Traditionally,
Rhizosolenia
species commonly exhibit a girdle segment structure in the column and a particular shape of the external processes, otaria, claspers, and the contiguous area (Sundström 1986, Hasle and Syvertsen 1996).
Ehrenberg (1843) established
Rhizosolenia
, with
R.americana
as the type species. Later, Hustedt (1930), Hasle (1975), Sundström (1986), Round et al. (1990), and Hernández-Becerril and Meave del Castillo (1996, 1997) reviewed the genus. The genus
Rhizosolenia
comprises a number of genera with particular morphologies:
Neocalyptrella
Hernández-Becerril and Meave,
Pseudosolenia
Sundström,
Proboscia
Sundström, and
Urosolenia
Round and Crawford. All these genera are found solely in marine environments except
Urosolenia
, which is restricted to fresh waters (Edlund and Stoermer 1993, Rott et al. 2006).
Shim (1994) reported finding the genus
Rhizosolenia
and several species of the genus
Guinardia
H. Peragallo and
Dactyliosolen
Castracane in the family Rhizosoleniaceae in Korea’s coastal waters. Lee (1995) added 2 genera to a checklist of Korean coastal waters:
Proboscia
and
Pseudosolenia
. Since then, others have performed further studies of
Rhizosolenia
and other related taxa in Korea. However, the species identifications, synonymies and phylogenetic system of the genus
Rhizosolenia
and other related taxa are yet insufficient.
The present study examined planktonic diatoms of the genus
Rhizosolenia
from coastal Korea’s waters. We studied morphological details by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and light microscopy (LM) and discussed their taxonomies and distributional data.

MATERIALS AND METHODS
From August 2008 to February 2009, we collected phytoplankton samples from Korean coastal waters (
Table 1
), by vertically towing a 20 ㎛ mesh net and immediately fixed the samples with neutralized formalin (final concentration 5%), glutaraldehyde (final concentration 2%) and Lugol’s solution. To remove organic matter in the diatom cells, we used the method described by Hasle and Fryxell (1970) and Simonsen (1974). The resultant materials were examined under an Axioskop 40 light microscope(Carl Zeiss, Jena, Germany) and photographed with an MRc 5 camera (Carl Zeiss) and a scanning electron microscope (JSM-5600LV; Jeol, Tokyo, Japan). To analyze diatoms’ sizes, we employed image calculation software (AxioVision AC version 4.5; Carl Zeiss). To identify previous reports of each taxon, we considered catalogues by Cupp (1943), Hendey (1964), Sundstrom (1986), Hasle and Syvertsen (1996). Terminology followed general proposals by Ross et al. (1979), Sundstrom (1986), Round et al. (1990) and Hasle and Syvertsen (1996).

㎛ in diameter. The valve is sharply sub-conical, elongated,with a tapering needle-shaped process, almost straight, basally shallow up to the middle and 36.7-97.5 ㎛ in length. A contiguous area is present and otaria are absent. An impression of the adjacent valve process appears from the ventral valvar edge or the advalvar edge. It is groove-shaped and deeper in the basal than in the terminal region. Claspers are poorly noticeable. Valve areolae are poroid, external areolae with slit-like pores, 30 in 10 ㎛, and have a secondary quincuncial pattern. Scattered pores are circular, occurring in irregular distribution among the areolae or taking the place of some areolae distinguishable in external view. The segment horizontal and perpendicular axes are 4.1-16.7 ㎛ and 4.0-4.3 ㎛, respectively. Girdle segments are rhomboidal to trapezoidal and arranged in two dorsiventral columns. Segment areolae are rounded, 30 to 45 in 10 ㎛, arranged in striae oriented along the pervalvar axis, with a secondary quincuncial pattern.
Distribution.
According to Hasle and Syvertsen (1996),
R. pungens
occurs in brackish waters, both temperate and subtropical (Hernández-Becerril 1995). This species has been found from the coastal waters of the San Jose Gulf (Ferrario et al. 1986) to the San Matias Gulf (Sar 1996). During the present study, we observed it rarely in all samples during February and September 2009, off Jeju Island, Daecheon, Wolseung, Geoje Island, and the Sacheon coast.
Remarks.
R. pungens
resembles
R. setigera
in the morphology of its cell shape, claspers, and the thin, groove-shaped contiguous area. However,
R. setigera
and
R. pungens
can be distinguished based on the process shape.
R. pungens
appears basally shallow up to the middle of the process, while
R. setigera
possesses a tapering, needle-shaped process.

Sundström 1986, p. 89, Fig. 38 & 227-233; Hasle and Syvertsen 1996, p. 156, Pl. 29.
The cells are solitary, short chains forming, long and narrow cylindrical, bilaterally symmetrical, circular to slightly elliptical in cross-section. Specimens found in Korean coastal waters are 2.2-13.9 ㎛ in diameter and 70.0-248.5 ㎛ long. The valve is conoidal to sub-conoidal,bilaterally symmetrical, with the ventral part being much longer than the dorsal part. The contiguous area is large and limited by a well-developed, marginal ridge part, with noticeable claspers. The external process is displaced toward the apex of the apical valve, 3.3-9.1 ㎛ long, wide at the base, becoming tapering and tubular toward the distal part. Otaria are small and extend along the wide, basal part of the process, with the outer margin forming a finely pointed tip. The valve areolae are rounded rectangles, 21-22 in 10 ㎛, appearing in striae that converge at the apex. The segment horizontal and perpendicular axes are 2.2-13.9 ㎛ and 6.0-14.5 ㎛, respectively. The segments comprise a valvocopula, contiguous with most of the valve margin, and two lateral columns of squamiform to trapezoidal segments with hyaline edges. First segment close to the valvocopula gives the impression of an adjacent valve process at one side. The areolae of segments are rectangular, 20-42 in 10 ㎛. Striation in the girdle segments arranged in two patterns; straight in the central region and curved in the marginal region. A middle row of slit pores (usually 3 pores), with their long axes usually parallel to the areolae, perforate the velum structure of the valve and segments.
Distribution.
According to Sundström (1986), the distribution of
R. fallax
appeared circumglobal, in temperate to tropical waters. In Korean coastal waters,
R. fallax
is a newly recorded species. We found it, offshore in oceanic waters, in June 2009 and October 2009 only, in the Yellow Sea and off Geoje Island, Jeju Island, and the Wolseung and Yangyang coasts.
Remarks.
Hasle (1975) newly recorded
R. fallax
(as
R. shrubsolei
). She mentioned it as a species in good standing. However,
R. fallax
is difficult to separate from
R. imbricata
, since it has a similar size range under LM. However, these species can be distinguished by their striations. Moreover, under SEM the two species differ clearly in their velum structures. Likewise,
R. fallax
and
R. decipiens
are sometimes hard to distinguish by LM. However, the two species can usually be distinguished by process shape, which is basally swollen, then narrows abruptly at the apex, in
R. fallax
but narrows gradually at the apex in
R. decipiens
.

The cells are solitary, short chain forming, long cylindrical,bilaterally symmetrical, circular to slightly elliptical in cross-section. Specimens found in Korean coastal waters are 7.3-60.0 ㎛ in diameter, 246.7-400.0 ㎛ long. The valve is obliquely conoidal, with the ventral part being much longer than the dorsal part. The contiguous area is broad, variable in shape, and it is limited by well-developed marginal ridges with noticeable claspers. The external process is narrow and distally tube-shaped, displaced toward the apical valve’s dorsal apex, 6.7-13.3 ㎛ long. Otaria are comparatively small and extend along the swollen basal part of the process, with the outer margin forming a fine point at the tip. The valve areolae are rounded rectangles arranged in striae, which converge

First segment close to the valvocopula bears the impression of the adjacent valve process toward one side. The segments’areolae are rectangular, 21-26 in 10 ㎛. Striation in the girdle segments curves toward the central region. A middle row of slit pores (usually 1 pore), with their long axes usually parallel to the areolae, perforate the velum structure of the valve and segments.
Distribution.
R. imbricata
occurs almost everywhere except the polar regions (Sundström 1986, Hasle and Syvertsen 1996), including the Argentinean coastal waters (Vouilloud 2003). During the present study, we sporadically found
R. imbricata
in Korean coastal waters, in very low abundance.
Remarks.
Within its section,
Imbricatae
’s velum structure of the valve areolae and bands is its most important characteristic. In addition, according to Sundström (1986), the velum structure is variable in the species of this section.
R. imbricata
resembles
R. striata
in general cell shape, striation pattern, and shapes of the valve and segment areolae. Hustedt (1930) and Hendey (1937, 1964), among other authors, considered them to be the same species. However, Sundström (1986) rectified these studies, finding that the two species differ in cross section,which is circular to slightly elliptical in
R. imbricata
and elliptical in
R. striata
and in process shape. Moreover,they differ in the shape of the otaria, with the outer margin forming a fine point with the distal margin in
R. imbricata
but being rounded in
R. striata
. Additionally, Sundström (1986) and Hasle and Syvertsen (1996) emphasized that
R. imbricata
has a more pronounced areolae and stria density in the girdle segments (10-18 striae and 23-32 areolae in 10 ㎛) than
R. striata
does (6-12 striae and 12-19 areolae in 10 ㎛).

The cells are solitary, short chain forming, long and narrow cylindrical, bilaterally symmetrical, circular to slightly elliptical in cross-section. Specimens are 15.5-35.3 ㎛ in diameter and 176.5-394.4 ㎛ long. The valve is conoidal to sub-conoidal, bilaterally symmetrical, with the ventral part being much longer than the dorsal part. contiguous area is broad, limited by a well-developed, marginal ridge part, with noticeable claspers. The external process is displaced toward the apical valve’s apex, 9.3-10.3 ㎛ long, and wide at the base, with a tapering tube shape toward the distal part. Otaria are small, extended along the wide basal part of the process, with the outer margin forming a fine point at the tip. The valve areolae are rounded rectangles, 21 in 10 ㎛, arranged in striae converging at the apex. The segment horizontal and perpendicular axes are 15.5-35.3 ㎛ and 11.7-12.8 ㎛, respectively. The segments comprise a valvocopula, contiguous with most of the valve margin, and squamiform to trapezoidal segments with hyaline edges, in two lateral columns. First segment close to the valvocopula shows the impression of the adjacent valve process toward one side. The areolae of segments are rectangular, 30-34 in 10 ㎛. Striation in the girdle segment arranged in two patterns: straight in the central region and curved in the marginal region. The velum structure of valve and segments are perforated by a middle row of slit pores (usually 3 pores) with long axes usually parallel to the areolae.
Distribution.
In September 2008, we newly observed
Rhizosolenia
sp. 1 within Korean coastal waters, in the Yellow Sea’s oceanic waters.
Remarks.
Rhizosolenia
sp. 1 shows the common characteristics of
R. fallax
. Both Rhizosolenia sp. 1 and
R. fallax
show the same velum structure and striation patterns. However, the diameter of the
Rhizosolenia
sp. 1 that we observed in Korean coastal waters was double that of the previously studied
R. fallax
.

The velum structure of valve and segments are perforated by a middle row of slit pores (usually 1 pore) with the long axes commonly parallel to the areolae.
Distribution.
In September 2008, we newly observed
Rhizosolenia
sp. 2 within Korean coastal waters, in the Yellow Sea’s oceanic waters.
Remarks.
Rhizosolenia
sp. 2 resembles
R. imbricata
in the morphology of its striation and velum structure. However, areolae density distinguishes this species from
R. imbricata; Rhizosolenia
sp. 2 has 21-26 in 10 ㎛, while
R. imbricata
has 26-35 in 10 ㎛.
DISCUSSION
In the present study, we recorded 5 species (including 2 unidentified species) belonging to the genus
Rhizosolenia
.Two species had already been recorded in Korean coastal waters:
R. pungens
(Shim 1994, Lee 1995) and
R. imbricata
(Shim 1994, Lee 1995).
R. fallax, Rhizosolenia
sp. 1 and
Rhizosolenia
sp. 2 were newly recorded within Korean coastal waters, though occurring rarely in our samples.
R. fallax
and
R. pungens
were widely distributed at Jeju Island (St. 6 and St. 5), respectively. We found these species in our samples all along the Korean coast. However,we found
R. imbricata
sporadically, at 1 station in the Yellow Sea.
According to Brunel (1962),
R. pungens
is a variation of
R. setigera
Brightwell, based on its conoidal valves and the shape and arrangement of its girdle segments and areolae. However, the two species differ in process morphology.Sunesen and Sar (2007) described some specimens with tapering, external processes of common appearance and others with a thick middle part, along with specimens having intermediately-thickened processes, all occurring in the same sample. Nevertheless, Hasle and Syvertsen (1996) and Throndsen et al. (2003) dealt with two distinct species, based on external process morphology.
Sundström (1986) hesitated to consider
R. setigera
as belonging to the genus
Rhizosolenia
at all, because the species did not clearly fit into either of the two sections (section
Rhizosolenia
and
Imbricatae
) of the genus
Rhizosolenia
. Both
R. setigera
and
R. pungens
differ in having thin, groove-shaped contiguous areas and in their areolae morphologies, they lack otaria, and their poroids show a velum structure with slit-shaped pores. From a morphological point of view, the important characteristics of the species
R. setigera
and
R. pungens
are their thin, groove-shaped contiguous areas with claspers. If the contiguous area locate on the first ventral segment and lacks otaria, as in the case of R. bergonii, those species should belong to the section Rhizosolenia. As a result, the characteristics of
R. setigera
and
R. pungens
are insufficient to establish a new genus. Thus,
R. setigera
and
R. pungens
are included in the genus
Rhizosolenia
, based on ultrastructural similarities of this species to other species of the genus.
R. fallax
, newly observed in Korean coastal waters, is characterized by its velum structure and striations. Sundstrom(1986) illustrated its velum structure and striation,and these features are important characteristics of the section
Imbricatae
of the
Rhizosoleniaceae
. Further details remain to be investigated, and other section
Imbricatae
species that occur in Korean waters should be studies soon.
We provide here a key to the representatives of the genus
Rhizosolenia
that we discovered during the present survey.
Rhizosolenia
species commonly exhibit a girdle segment structure in the column, a particular shape to their external processes, otaria, claspers, and a contiguous area (Sundström 1986, Hasle and Syvertsen 1996).
