Extant Ceratolithus cristatus life-cycle observations and taxonomic simplification

Abstract:

There is still limited knowledge on the taxonomy and complex life-cycle pattern of Ceratolithus cristatus, in which the heterococcolith-producing phase is associated with a ceratolith-bearing phase. A study of plankton samples from the surface-waters of the Maldives revealed several C. cristatus ceratolith-bearing specimens and a number of combination coccospheres, two of which had an association of three morphologically-distinct coccolith types—horseshoe-shaped C. cristatus CER telesmus type...
