M. Hoppenrath and M. Selina. 2006. Pseudothecadinium campbellii gen. nov. et sp. nov. (Dinophyceae), a phototrophic, thecate, marine planktonic species found in the Sea of Okhotsk, Russia. Phycologia 45: 260–269. DOI: 10.2216/05-23.1 A new marine planktonic dinoflagellate is described from light and scanning electron microscopical observations of specimens from the Sea of Okhotsk, Russia. Pseudothecadinium campbellii Hoppenrath & Selina gen. and sp. nov. is 36.9–52.5 μm long, 31.8–45.0 μm deep, ovoid in lateral cell view, laterally flattened, with a descending cingulum, displaced about four to six cingular widths, thecate, with the plate formula Po 4′ 2a 4″ 4c 5(?)s 5′″ 1″″ and it contains chloroplasts. Thecal plates are smooth with scattered pores, there is a distinctive second anterior intercalary plate with a ‘ventral pore’, the precingular plate series is incomplete and the antapical cell contour is oblique when seen in ventral view. The plate pattern and the plate arrangement differ from all described dinoflagellate genera, but is most similar to Thecadinium and Thecadiniopsis.
