Coccolithophores are an ideal test group for investigating fine-scale differentiation within the phytoplankton since their taxonomy is rather well-documented and their biomineralised periplasts – the coccoliths – provide a rich suite of qualitative and quantitative morphological characters and a uniquely extensive fossil record. In addition, extant coccolithophore species can be grown in culture and hence are available for studies of morphological variability under controlled conditions, molecular genetic studies and cytological research.
