摘要: Abstract Cells assigned to Scotiella nivalis, cryophila and some resembling polyptera were found be variations in the zygote of a snow alga. There is considerable doubt that species exist cryophilic habitat because most appear zygotes life histories biflagellate volvocalean algae. The vegetative cells this cycle named Chloromonas sp. nov. In addition, zoospores, gametes, syngamy planozygotes are reported for first time species. Several environmental physical factors pertaining developmental stages alga discussed. It appears dormancy combined with freezing process two important initiating cleavage autumn. penetration light through snowbank may respect their germination spring year.
