Taxonomy:

Citation: Calciopappus caudatus Gaarder & Ramsfjell, 1954

Rank: Species

Distinguishing features:
Parent taxon (Calciopappus): Circum-flagellar coccoliths modified into elongate spines, supported by whorl coccoliths
This taxon: BC oblong whorl coccoliths without projection, no CFCs

Farinacci & Howe catalog pages: C. caudatus *

Morphology:

BCs - 1.5-2 µm, parallel sided, oblong, with laths showing strong sinistral obliquity, inner wall usually visible.
Whorl coccoliths - D-shaped, without projection. No CFC. Higher latitude form.
Csphs - usually elongate and tapering (caudate)

Plot of occurrence data:

Range-bar - range as quoted above, pink interval top occurs in, green interval base occurs in.
Triangles indicate an event for which a precise placement has been suggested
(NB There is no histogram as there are no occurrence records for the taxon in the Neptune database) Parent: Calciopappus
