Syracosphaera azureaplaneta sp. nov. and revision of Syracosphaera corolla Lecal, 1966.
Here we show that the extant coccolithophore Syracosphaera corolla Lecal, 1966 comprises two consistently
different non-intergrading morphotypes characterised respectively by exothecal coccoliths with wide and
narrow central-areas. These are interpreted as separate species and so a new species is described, S. azureaplaneta,
and a revised description is given for S. corolla.
