[coccoliths] 9th International Chrysophyte Symposium (ICS9)

[sh081 at kdw.kj.yamagata-u.ac.jp]

Dear Nannoplankton Workers

I would like to post a further announcement about a forthcoming meeting
that some of you may have an interest in.

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 - which
includes the archaeomonads), but also other siliceous microalgae (like
silicoflagellates and siliceous haptophytes) and enigmatic siliceous
microfossils, both freshwater and marine.

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, including
diatomists. 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.

Best wishes
