HOL</p> <p>Basionym: Anthosphaera periperforata Kleijne 1991 Mar. Micropaleontol, vol. 17, p. 41, Plate IX, Figs. 3–4 non Figs. 5–6.</p> <p>The species S. periperforata HOL is characterised by body-coccoliths, with a prominent perforate cy- cle. The perforations are elongate and typically show consistent anticlockwise obliquity in distal view. The central structure may be domal or conical. The circum-flagellar coccoliths have similarly constructed rims, with medium-sized arched processes (c. 1.0–1.5 μm long). It is an unusual taxon among extant holococcolithophores in showing strong chirality; if the perfora- tions are oblique, they are always directed anticlock- wise in distal view. The species is morphologically variable (Cros and Fortuño 2002; our observations) in that 1) body-coccoliths and antapical coccoliths may or may not possess an apical boss on top of their central distal cover, 2) the central structure may be conical or dome-shaped, 3) the perforate cycle is variably de- veloped, and 4) circum-flagellar coccoliths may show a flat or a pointed top. If these characters are considered together, then they define a limited number of recurring morphotypes, and we believe these should be regarded as discrete taxa. One of the forms appears sufficiently well-separated to be treated as a distinct species, how- ever, for the other three, the evidence is less clear and therefore, we describe them as varieties.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/C041879A8E44FF84FF22A1F2FAA9FDA4	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

HOL</p> <p>Derivatio nominis: From Latin tridentatus –a –um (adjective), from trident, the three-prong weapon; refer- ring to the three-pointed upper structure of CFCs.</p> <p>Description: Coccosphere, spherical but usually seen collapsed, composed of c. 50–85 BCs and c. 6–10 CFCs. BCs broadly elliptical with a rim of one to two microcrystals wide. Perforate cycle irregular with c. 8 large perforations, separated by narrow struts, which usually do not show obvious obliquity. The central structure dome-shaped with a low apical boss. CFCs subcircular to circular in outline. A single-layered distal process, whose opening in the arch is placed low, bears an upper margin structure with three pointy edges; the rim shows one to two rings of crystallites.</p> <p>Remarks: The central structure of the BCs is similar to that of S. periperforata var. periperforata with a conical shape and an apical boss. However, the perforate cycle is less regular and bears less struts. The CFCs are also different, showing a characteristic upper margin structure with three pointy edges and a low arch.</p> <p>Dimensions: Coccosphere diameter c. 7.5 μm. BCs c. 0.9–1.1 μm long x c. 0.8–1.0 μm wide.

BCs’ elliptical rim formed of two rings of small crystallites and perforate cycle well-developed with c. 20 struts showing distinct anticlockwise obliquity. These form a simple cone with an apical boss on top of the distal cover. The struts are well-separated by prominent and large, nearly triangular perforations. CFCs consist of a similarly structured rim that bears a distal arched process with a low point via crystal struts. The central pointy edge is somewhat higher than the lateral ones.</p> <p>Remarks: BCs’ central structure is conical in shape and similar to that of S. periperforata var. periperforata, but smaller.

BCs are characteristically minute (&lt;1 µm) and partially calcified with an elliptical rim. BCs’ rim structure consists of an outer ring of tiny rhombohedral crystals that are loosely connected with an assembly of irregularly arranged, tiny crystallites in the central structure, thus leaving somewhat broad per- forations; a few BCs with only a rim sometimes occur (Plate 6, Fig. 3). CFCs consist of a similarly constructed rim, possessing though, a high arch (height&gt; 2 x width) with a low triangular apical spine.</p> <p>Remarks: The BCs are similar to those of S. marginiporata, although without the perforate microstructure. The CFCs with the very high arch are unique and quite different to those of S. marginiporata.</p> <p>Dimensions: Coccosphere diameter c. 6 μm. BCs 0.4–0.8 μm long x c. 0.4 μm wide.
