摘要
Chrysophytes (classes Chrysophyceae and Synurophyceae) are predominantly freshwater algae that produce siliceous resting stages. These resting stages (referred to as stomatocysts, statospores, or simply cysts) are known to be excellent indicators of past and present environmental conditions. This study focuses on the stomatocysts found in sediment traps and sediment cores from high-Alpine Lake Silvaplana (southeastern Swiss Alps, 1792 m a.s.l.). We describe 21 stomatocyst types using scanning electron microscopy that are new to science or that were not identified with certainty following the guidelines of the International Statospore Working Group.
