Many exhibit characters by which they can be identified to species. The organic scales belong to the haptophyte genera <i>Chrysochromulina</i> (8-9 species), <i>Chrysocampanula</i> and <i>Dolichomastix</i> (1 species each). The siliceous scales belong to the chrysophytes <i>Paraphysomonas vestita</i> and <i>Meringosphaera</i> sp. and to the heterotrophic flagellate genus <i>Thaumatomastix</i> (<i>T. dybsoeana, T. formosa, Thaumatomastix</i> sp.). As far as the authors are aware, this is the first time that non-calcareous protistan scales have been observed in deep-sea sediments (although siliceous skeletal plates and cysts are reported). All scales probably originated from the upper water column and were delivered to the deep-sea floor on rapidly sinking detrital aggregates. However, naked heterotrophic flagellates are known to thrive in abyssal sediment habitats and so the possibility that some scale-bearing protests also live in benthic deep-sea environments cannot be eliminated. Many species identified at the PAP site are common in coastal marine waters around Europe; some occur as far afield as Tasmania and New Zealand. Five <i>Chrysochromulina</i> species are known from central oceanic areas, including parts of the North Atlantic, while another species, <i>C. pringsheimii</i>, is reported from a British freshwater lake. The authors retrieved ~15% of the 55 named <i>Chrysochromulina</i> species (~8% of the estimated total number of species in this diverse group) in the ~35 µl of abyssal sediment. Because the scales can persist and be identified after cell death, they may provide useful time- and space-averaged information about the distribution of protest species in marine habitats. The long-term fate of the scales on the sea-floor is unknown. It is possible that at least some of the organic scales are preserved as microfossils in deep-sea sediments.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Organic and siliceous protistan scales in north-east Atlantic abyssal sediments","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-04-18 01:31:25.532263","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2006,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2020-10-23","DateCreate":"2007-11-13","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000239370300004","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1017/S0025315406013567"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":116802,"PubliDate":2006,"Pagination":"679-688","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"86","Issue":"4","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":43277,"SerRR":"Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom.
