Original descriptions of 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.

Editors' Notes
Original description
Sechsarmige Kalkkörperehen mit reichen Oberflächenverzierungen. Die Primärfenster sind im Gegensatz zu Polycladolithus stellaris groß ausgebildet, wodurch sich die gesamten Symmetrieverhältnisse des Kalkakörperchens von denen vorigen Formart unterscheiden. Je drei zu einer Seite gehörenden Arme stehen räumlich ab. Die schematische Darstellung der Stukturen (Abb. 77 i bis I) zeigt deutlich den eigenartigen Bau dieses wundersamen Nannofossiles.
 
Translation (from Google translate)
Six-armed calcareous bodies with rich surface embellishments. The primary windows, in contrast to those of Polycladolithus stellaris, are large, whereby the total symmetry conditions of the nannolith differs from the previous form. Three arms belonging to one side are spatially separated. The schematic representation of the structures (figs 77 i to l) clearly shows the peculiar construction of this miraculous nannofossil.
