Summary
Abstract: The User Friendly Key to UK Coastal Planktonic Ciliates

Ciliates are an important component of the UK plankton, but are
difficult to identify as present guides are inadequate. This study,
funded by the UK Natural Environmental Research Council's Thematic
Marine Productivity Programme, is assembling and disseminating
relevant observational data on the biodiversity and identification of
planktonic ... View entire text
