The 9th International Chrysophyte Symposium (ICS9) will be held in Yamagata, Japan, from 11-15 Sept. 2016. This symposium deals not only with the traditional groups (chrysophytes and synurophytes), but also other siliceous microalgae and enigmatic siliceous microfossils, both freshwater and marine. Some presentations on silicoflagellates and siliceous haptophytes are expected. The symposium is held every 4 years (the last one was in Prague in 2012) and is usually attended by a wide range of specialists. The ICS9 website can be found at: http://www-sci.kj.yamagata-u.ac.jp/~ICS9Yamagata/index.html The website includes a downloadable 2nd Circular document with which you can register for the meeting. Early bird registration closes on 31 July 2016. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me, especially if you are thinking of attending.
