from harbour and coastal waters during February and March, 2009. A total of
49 genera with 65 species of phytoplankton were recorded in this study. Among
these 40 genera was represented by 46 species of diatoms and 9 genera with 19
species of dinoflagellates. There were 40 species of diatoms, 15 species of
dinoflagellates in the harbour areas and 36 species of diatoms, 16 species of
dinoflagellates in the coastal waters were recorded during February. Whereas
33 species of diatoms, 15 species of dinoflagellates in the harbour areas and
37 species of diatoms, 13 species of dinoflagellates in the coastal waters were
recorded in March. The study indicated higher phytoplankton densities and low
diversity in harbour areas compared to coastal waters.]]>Ananthan, G., P. Sampathkumar, P. Soundarapandian and L. Kannan,2004196772Bahaar, S.W.N. and G.A. Bhat,20115269276Balasubramanian, R. and L.
