Class of algae
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Prymnesiophyceae is a haptophyte class.[1] Although it was originally described by Casper in 1972, it did not receive a Latin diagnosis (a requirement for valid publication under the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature) until Hibberd provided one in 1976.[2]
