Phytoplankton pigment composition was studied by means of HPLC during an 8 mo period with emphasis on the diatom spring bloom.Twenty-five different pigments were detected and their concentration patterns are shown.The pigment composition revealed that, besides diatoms, nannoplanktonic cryptomonads and green algae play an important role in the phytoplankton community of the coastal waters of Roscoff.High concentrations of chlorophyll a degradahon products were never observed.Seven different phaeophorbide a-hke, 2 phaeophytin a-like and phaeophytin b were detected.Correspondence analysis of pigment data can be used to show the dynamics of the phytoplankton community.
