small Gephyrocapsa

Description: Gephyrocapsa coccolith <3µm long.

Remarks: Small Gephyrocapsa coccoliths show diverse morphologies and probably include many species. It is not practical to identify them by light microscopy so they are typically simply refered to the informal category "small Gephyrocapsa". Alternatively the names G. aperta, or in the Late Quaternary G. ericsonii are often used in the same sense.
