Our second publication investigating the protistan communities in the Galápagos Archipelago was published recently in Frontiers in Marine Sciences. Former post-doc Se Hyeon jang led this effort to examine how environmental conditions influence marine protists with an emphasis on the micrograzer communities. We also report observation from a red tide bloom in Elizabeth Bay, Isabela Island. A bloom of the dinoflagellate Scripsiella lachrymosa was being actively grazed by another dinoflagellate, Polykrikos kofoidii.
