Calciosolenia fossilis (Deflandre in Deflandre & Fert, 1954) Bown in Kennedy et al., 2000

Description: Elongate, narrow scapholiths. Morphologically comparable with the extant Calciosolenia brasiliensis (Lohmann 1919), but fossil specimens have tended to be classified as Calciosolenia (or Scapholithus) fossilis.

Remarks: The extant species show considerable varimorphism across their coccospheres and there is evidence of similar variability in the fossil forms, when found as collapsed coccospheres.

Calciosolenia brasiliensis

Calciosolenia brasiliensis (Lohmann 1919) Young et al. 2003. [Cylindrotheca]

Description: Coccosphere monomorphic, slender; ends tapered with many very elongate liths, but no spines. Liths have very regular bars, which offset neatly to form median ridge.
