Abstract:
Living dinoflagellate spores that are identical with the hystrichosphere Spiniferites ramosus (Ehrenberg) Mantell have been isolated from modern marine lagoonal sediments in Bermuda and germinated in vitro to produce motile dinoflagellates of the Gonyaulax spinifera type. Another typical hystrichosphere, Spiniferites bentori (Rossignol) Wall and Dale, n. comb., was isolated from sediments in Phosphorescent Bay, Puerto Rico, and excysted to produce a dinoflagellate of the Gonyaulax digitalis type. The biological and paleontological significance of this culture work is discussed.
