KDan,

very interesting - where did you find it? It does'nt seem to be a normal European species!

Ernst Hippe:

yes, of course you are right. Nevertheless, I found it in Europe, in Czech Republic - more precisely in Eppendorf test tube

It was an amazing gift from my friends - phycologists.

Karel,

Oh fine, I had a similar experience some years ago, including this species - from Thailand!
