The association is interpreted to be extant and comprises eight taxa, five of which have not been previously reported from this area. The taxa are Calcigonellum elongatum, Caracomia arctica, Leonella granifera, Praecalcigonellum schizosaeptum, Scrippsiella acuminata, S. lachrymosa, S. rotunda, and Scrippsiella sp. aff. S. trifida. The association is unique, as it combines pelagic and neritic taxa previously not found together, which might be explained by the highly seasonal environmental conditions of Gullmar Fjord. The recovered cysts reveal a variety of new morphological and ultrastructural details: P. schizosaeptum has a radial ultrastructure and most likely a Type A archaeopyle; wall-forming crystals of C. elongatum and S. lachrymosa show a compound ultrastructure, while those of P. schizosaeptum and S. rotunda grow epitaxially. Such differences in the ultrastructure of the wall forming crystallites suggest the possibility of fundamentally different biomineralisation mechanisms in calcareous dinoflagellates. At least two distinct species are currently united in S. rotunda, with cysts described from the Gulf of Naples, Norway and the China Sea being different to those of the type locality and Gullmar Fjord. Among the taxa recovered from Gullmar Fjord are rare species with an uncommon combination of morphological features, and include species whose molecular data is currently unavailable. An inclusion of their molecular data, particularly that of C. arctica and P. schizosaeptum, into phylogenetic reconstructions would be crucial to further elucidate the ongoing discussion on the systematic significance of the various cyst characters, such as archaeopyle-, ultrastructure-, and tabulation-type.","PeriodicalId":186533,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nannoplankton Research","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128080406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lohmann (1902) described a second species, R. stylifera, from the Mediterranean, differing from R. clavigera in its appendix shape. The former possesses a thin stem composed of fine elements, whereas the latter has a thicker, coarser stem. In recent taxonomic works (Okada & Mclntyre, 1977; Hallegraeff, 1984) the two species have been regarded as conspecific, with R. clavigera having priority. Intermediate forms have been seen (Borsetti & Cati, 1972; Hallegraeff, 1984; Norris,1984) but we believe that the stem types are distinct enough to be separated as varieties so that future distribution studies may provide useful information on their individual biogeographies.","PeriodicalId":186533,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nannoplankton Research","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128085551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

All samples were dominated by diatoms, with dinoflagellates often being the second most important group. Coccolithophorid absolute abundance (<3.0 x 103 cells/L) and species diversity (generally <10 spp./site) were very low, but included both heteroand holococcolithophorid taxa, as well as the rarely reported coastal species, Cruciplacolithus neohelis. Net samples were also collected off the eastern coast of Guam, as well as from Apra Harbor on the western side, during March 2013; however, the coccolithophorid diversity was much lower on the eastern side of the island, perhaps due to the high particulate load from river outflow. Despite this, some live specimens were observed and photographed. This is the first report of coccolithophorids from Guam, and although the assemblages showed some similarities with those from other subtropical/tropical Pacific islands, surprisingly few cells of Emiliania huxleyi were encountered, while Gephyrocapsa oceanica and Umbellosphaera tenuis were only seen as loose coccoliths.","PeriodicalId":186533,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nannoplankton Research","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128087116","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
