Original descriptions of taxa - also emended descriptions for a few taxa. For coccolithophores, and many calcispheres, these are pages from the Farinacci & Howe Catalog of Calcareous Nannofossils. In other cases (e.g. non-calcifying haptophytes) the data is directly compiled on this site. The "Catalogue of Calcareous Nannofossils" was originally compiled by Prof A. Farinacci 1969-1989, since 2000 it has been updated and extended by Richard Howe - see The Farinacci and Howe Catalog - an Introduction.
Taxa are sorted alphabetically for simple browsing, or you can use search boxes at the top & bottom of the page

Combinations:
  • Discoaster brouweri subsp. rutellus Gartner 1967 (basionym) with less obviously asymmetric tips and which do not appear bifurcate. Gartner (1967) also states that the blades can be deflected either clockwise or anticlockwise but it is not clear whether this might simply be an effect of varying way-up of the specimens (i.e. some being seen in distal view and others in proximal view).
