Subfamilia: Elphidiinae. The megalospheric phase has a large initial chamber; the microspheric phase has a smaller initial chamber. Another distinctive feature is the retral processes (small backward extensions of the chamber walls) that cross the sutures, giving some the appearance of tiny rolled up glass baskets. The complete cycle for Elphidium crispum takes two years in the shallower marine regions, although it may be delayed at deeper stations. Subclass Coccidia (Plasmodium). Lister (1895) observed Elphidium in two different forms as megalospheric form (sexual form) and microsperic form (asexual form). A small amount of cytoplasm collects around each nucleus. Conchyliologie systématique et classification méthodique des coquilles. World Foraminifera Database. Each amoebula secretes the proloculum, formsrhizopodia, then it grows and forms other chambers of the shell to become a megalospheric forms. 2. Subphylum I: Sarcomastigophora.

C631-635) redecribed the genus with illustrations and provided details of synonymies and the numerous generic revisions on de Montfort’s short original description. The gametes conjugate outside in open sea to produce zygotes and the B form then develops and matures during the second summer. Description from Loeblich and Tappan, 1964: Test planispiral, bilaterally symmetrical, involute, chambers numerous, with numerous retral processes or internal chamber projections along septal borders, ending blindly against septal face in final chamber, but pierced by tiny pore formed by resorption of septum at base of retral process in earlier chambers; septa secondarily doubled, incomplete septal flap being formed against apertural face as succeeding chamber forms, leaving septum single-layered near center and base and double near outer edge where it encloses canal system, with prominent lamellar thickening of outer wall; canal system complex, spiral canal present along umbilical chamber margin leading to vertical umbilical canals through umbilical plug, and also giving rise to subsutural septal canals at each septum in intraseptal space between septal face and septal flap, formed by succeeding chamber and lying below retal processes, communicating with the surface by means of diverging canals;  walls calcareous, finely perforate, radial in structure, surface commonly coinciding with grooves (fossettes) or ridges paralleling periphery (striped crenulations) and commonly coinciding with internal retral process, or surface may be smooth or finely pustulous; aperture consisting of a row of pores at base of septal face.

We found two Zn-Zn next-neighbour shells at 3.15 Å and 3.55 Å, which were in agreement with the hydrozincite model. 9–11. The life cycle of Elphidium may be summarized as follows: the microspheric forms produce amoebulae by asexual fission which develops into megalospheric forms. 3, figs. Class : Rhizopoda. Elphidium frigidum Cushman 1933, p. 5, pl. 10.26). The complete cycle for Elphidium crispum takes two years in the shallower marine regions, although it may be delayed at deeper stations. Paris: Schoell. Forminiferal Genera and their Classification. The microspheric forms are developed by the conjugation or syngamy. 7, figs. Length 0.61-1.00 mm, Remarks: Cushman (1933) noted that E. frigidum “shows considerable variation in the shape of the last-formed chamber, which is much expanded in the adult and often longer than the others so that it projects beyond the general outline of the test. Most of the taxa are illustrated by SEM photographs. 2019. The Elphidium spp. Class Toxoplasmea (Toxoplasma gondii). A total of 288 modern benthic carbonate shelf foraminifera in three areas of the Western Mediterranean Sea (Alboran Platform, Oran Bight and the southwest shelf of Mallorca) have been studied and are systematically listed. 1 / 1. Thus, its life cycle clearly exhibits the phenomenon of alternations of asexual microspheric generations with sexual megalospheric generations. The microspheric form reproduces asexually by fission to produce a number of amoebulae. Elphidium represents an alternation of generation in its life history (Fig. Up Next. Elphidiella (Cushman), 1936, p. 89, pl. Watch later. It is not common in Puget Sound but is found around the San Juan Islands and rarely in the central Sound.

This shell is made up of calcium carbonate. Elphidium is an abundant genus of foraminifera. Another classification is based on the scheme given by the Committee on Taxonomy and Taxonomic Problems of the Society of Protozoologists, and mainly proposed by BM Honigberg and others (1964). Type species Elphidiella arctica (Parker and Jones, 1864) 3a, b; Cushman and Valentine, 1930, p. 21, pl. Description from Cushman and McCulloch (1940): Test large size for genus, about 2 ½ times longer than wide in peripheral view, lenticular, completely involute; the umbilical region with a medium-sized, slightly projecting, rounded boss of clear shell material, the surface if which is set with 10 to 12 small, shallow, rounded pits, periphery sharply angular but not sharply keeled, sometimes becoming lightly lobate and blunt in the last portion of the adult coil; chambers very numerous, 20 to 40, long and narrow, the last few often inflated, forward part slightly raised giving a radially ribbed appearance; sutures somewhat sigmoid, the middle portion of each nearly radial, often partially obscured by the retral processes, set with pores; wall finely perforate with about 12 relatively long retral processes extending well up onto the side of the next added chamber; aperture a row of small openings at the base of the apertural face which is low sagittate, the sides often slightly concave, the ends pointed. [citation needed] In some species the rim is sharp, while in others it is more rounded. The inner cytoplasm mass containing several nuclei creeps out of the shell and remains as a lump around it. Like other forams, fossils from different species are used to date rocks. 676 + 16 [1810 (before 28 May)]., available online at. lxxxvii + 409 [1808].

Thus, this paper examines the taxonomic description of 262 benthic foraminifera in 117 genera and 24 plankt… Vol. Shopping. Yvonne Milker. Description: Test usually completely involute, compressed, periphery rounded, lobulated, umbilical region depressed; chambers distinct, inflated, especially in the latter portion, the final chamber often enlarged and projecting beyond the general contour of the tests; sutures distinct, depressed, with very numerous short retral processes; wall thin, very distinctly perforate, the later-forming chambers often having distinct elongate markings; aperture consisting of numerous fine pores at the base of the apertural face of the last-forming chamber. As a result, classification is problematic and the literature is inconsistent. 2: pp. This systematic description provides a list of synonyms, short remarks about morphological features of the taxa and some annotations about taxa with problematic generic status. The test is spiral-shaped, and can be red, orange, or brown. alaskense – E . THE NCBI Taxonomy database allows browsing of the taxonomy tree, which contains a classification of organisms.
