Plymouth Peridinians. IV. The Plate Arrangement of some Peridinium Species
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 May 2009
Extract
The well-known Peridinium ovatum (Pouchet) is a common and widely distributed species. It was first described by Pouchet (1883) from the Mediterranean, and later more detailed figures were given by Schütt (1895), Fauré Fremiet (1908), and Broch (1909). None of these figures agree with the plate arrangement found in the specimens from Plymouth. Jörgensen (1913) places the species in his section Humilia in the group Metaperidinium, on account of the supposed arrangement of the dorsal epithecal plates.
