• The presence of the potentially toxic genera Ostreopsis and Coolia (Dinophyceae) in the North Aegean Sea, Greece (2006, background): “Regarding the cell size and the ratios, the measurements of both O. ovata and O. cf. siamensis from Greek coastal waters fit well with those by Penna et al. (2005) (Table 2).”
• Morphological identification of two tropical dinoflagellates of the genera Gambierdiscus and Sinophysis in the Mediterranean Sea (2008, background): “Reports on potentially toxic epiphytic dinoflagellates of the genera Ostreopsis, Coolia and Prorocentrum in the Mediterranean Sea have been increasing during the last decade (Vila et al., 2001; Penna et al., 2005; Turki, 2005; Aligizaki & Nikolaidis, 2006a, b; Ismael & Halim, 2006; Monti et al., 200”
• A phylogeographical study of the toxic benthic dinoflagellate genus Ostreopsis Schmidt (2010, methodology): “Field samples containing Ostreopsis species and cultured specimens were analysed under light microscopy after staining with Fluorescent Brightener 28 (Sigma, St Louis, MO, USA), following Fritz & Triemer’s (1985) technique, as indicated in Penna et al. (2005).”
• Monitoring of HAB species in the Mediterranean Sea through molecular methods (2006, background): “…of the Tyrrhenian, South Adriatic and Catalan Seas [North Western (NW) Mediterranean] in the summers of 2001 and 2003 (Vila et al., 2001b; Sansoni et al., 2003) focussed our attention also to toxic benthic microalgae that are considered potentially harmful to human health (Penna et al., 2005b).”
• Aquatic alien species in Greece (2009): tracking sources, patterns and effects on the ecosystem. (2009, background): “…toxic epiphytic dinoflagellates of the genera Ostreopsis, Coolia and Prorocentrum in the Mediterranean Sea, including Greece, are rising during the last decade (Penna et al., 2005; Aligizaki & Nikolaidis, 2006; Monti et al., 2007; Aligizaki et al., 2008a, 2009a; Dolapsakis et al., 2008).”
• Ostreopsis ovata bloom along the Conero Riviera (northern Adriatic Sea): relationships with environmental conditions and substrata. (2010, methodology): “ovata was carried out after treatment with Calcofluor and observation under epifluorescence, following Steidinger and Tangen (1997) and Penna et al. (2005), and confirmed by molecular analysis carried out on randomly selected samples (Penna, unpubl.”
• Potentially toxic epiphytic Prorocentrum (Dinophyceae) species in Greek coastal waters. (2009, background): “002 which are confined in tropical, subtropical and temperate waters (Faust, 1999; Vila et al., 2001b; Penna et al., 2005; Aligizaki and Nikolaidis, 2006b, 2008; Monti et al., 2007; Richlen et al., 2008), Prorocentrum species, seem to be cosmopolitan.”
• Morphological and genetic characterization of benthic dinoflagellates of the genera Coolia, Ostreopsis and Prorocentrum from the south-eastern Bay of Biscay (2011, background): “Coolia monotis is frequently found both in temperate as well as in tropical areas (Meunier, 1919 ; Penna et al , 2005 ; Aligizaki & Nikolaidis, 2006 ; Dolopsakis et al , 2006 ) and the P.”
