Geological Range:
Last occurrence (top): Extant Data source: present int the plankton (Thomsen et al. 2016)
First occurrence (base): within no known fossil record modern (0.00-0.00Ma, base in "Holocene" stage). Data source: [JRY 2016]
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: Papposphaera
