 * The relative abundance of five cell types was determined: uniflagellate, biflagellate, green coccoid (wrinkled cell wall in SEM), blue-green coccoid (smooth cell wall in SEM), and miscellaneous coccoids.

 *  The quantitative data are not representative for 'naked' phytoflagellates and coccoids, and can indicate the correct order of magnitude for diatoms, thecate dinoflagellates and coccolithophorids only.

Bacteria

 * Two morphological types of coccoids were observed, one of which was electron-dense and had an intact cellular membrane and flagella, indicating that it was likely to be viable. Zheng, P.
