Morphological and habitat characteristics of Prasiola fluviatilis (Prasiolales, Trebouxiophyceae, Chlorophyta) from the Altai Mountains, Mongolia

This paper aims to confirm the report of Prasiola fluviatilis in Mongolian Altai and describe some previously undescribed morphological features such as a screw-shaped stipe anchored in the mucilage pad strongly adherent to the substrate, and aplanospores. Prasiola fluviatilis could be distributed o...

description This paper aims to confirm the report of Prasiola fluviatilis in Mongolian Altai and describe some previously undescribed morphological features such as a screw-shaped stipe anchored in the mucilage pad strongly adherent to the substrate, and aplanospores. Prasiola fluviatilis could be distributed occasionally in the high mountain regions and possibly be a valuable indicator of the glacial shifts caused by global warming in severely warming regions like Mongolia.
