[Lista-Algas] buscando material del género Paralia

[malena at ilpla.edu.ar]

Estimados colegas ficólogos,
Aprovecho la lista Algas para acercarles un pedido de un amigo y  
colega diatomólogo de Luxemburgo buscando material del género Paralia.  
Si alguien tiene material disponible por favor contáctense conmigo o  
con él directamente.
Muchas gracias y saludos

Dear Magdalena,

Please, could you spread this message in Argentina?
Probably some diatomists or algologists could help Dr Irena Kaczmarska  
to find some Paralia also from Argentina.

Thanks in advance
Luc

Subject  we are looking for Paralia


Hello Luc,
I am writing to ask whether you may have a culture or material
containing Paralia. It is cited from Mediterranean locations though not
ever commonly. We (my student Mike MacGillivary and I) are currently
working on population genetics of Paralia sulcata/marina(?) in Canadian
Maritimes and possibly in ship ballast waters. We would like to compare
our Paralia(s) to those from distant, geographically exotic locations,
and so, to this end we query colleagues about availability of the material.

We can use alcohol preserved samples, though fresh material is obviously
preferable, even if it just unfixed sediments. We consider also some
breeding experiments (though with another student). Do you have this
type of material? Do you know of anyone who has this  type of material?
Any thoughts and help in this matter would be much appreciated.

Hope all goes well for you and many thanks in advance,

Irena
