Division of the family . (101)<br />

A. Transverse groove•lies near the anterior end of the cell,<br />

so that the anterior portion of the cell is very small in<br />

comparison with the posterior portion. 1.Amphidinium (P.101)<br />

B. Transverse groove lies more within the middle portion of<br />

the cell, and is circular or helical.<br />

1. Transverse groove is circular or helical. In the latter .<br />

case, the helical interval is less than one fifth of<br />

the length of the body..<br />

2. Gymnodinium (P.107)<br />

2. Transverse groove is always helical; helical interval<br />

is more than one fifth of the body length; the helix<br />

turns from one to less than 34 times. 3. Gyrodinium (P.146)<br />

C. Transverse groove lies near the posterior end of the cell, •<br />

and is hardly helical, usually circular. Longitudinal'<br />

groove is deVeloped only on the short posterior part of<br />

the body<br />

of Diplopsalis acuta), the higher units based upon it<br />

Kolkwitziellaceae" and "class: Kolkwitziellales"<br />

sensu Lindemann) must also be discarded.
