Reviews for Freshwater Dinoflagellates of North America
"Freshwater Dinoflagellates of North America features excellent coverage of the literature, geographic regions of the continent, and types of habitat in which dinoflagellates are found. It is likely to be the first book sought when one is examining a freshwater body and needs to identify dinoflagellates within it."
