Small Antarctic Late Cretaceous chorate dinoflagellate cysts: Biological and palaeoenvironmental affinities
Small spiny marine palynomorphs have been the focus of recent palynological studies since their high proportions in Antarctic Late Cretaceous and Cenozoic assemblages were noted. These palynomorphs were assigned to the dinoflagellate cyst Impletosphaeridium clavus and they were believed to have had...
