摘要

Variations in skeletal morphology can provide valuable information on silicoflagellate classification and evolution, as well as the ontogenetic process of skeleton formation; however, measuring hundreds of individual skeletons can be time-consuming, and there are few, if any, existing morphometric programs that can be used to study the triangular skeletons of Corbisema. Thus, a morphometric program previously designed to measure Stephanocha (=Distephanus) spp. was modified to investigate Corbisema spp., using C. apiculata from Mors, Denmark (early Eocene) as a test case. Although the obtained sample set contains specimens with and without pikes, as well as differences in the pike-strut distance, some basic statements can be made: (1) In general, the basal ring is an isosceles triangle with two equal sides and one slightly shorter side, and (2) radial spine length and basal side length both exhibit a unimodal distribution. The distance between the pike and strut ranges from 0 to 5μm, with a mean distance/ skeleton of 0-1μm representing 77% of the total specimens, and that of >2μm representing 3%. This may be related to their double skeleton configuration, with specimens lacking pikes or with large distances between pike and strut possibly associated with a 'corner-to-corner' configuration, while those with pikes close to the struts forming 'Star- of-David' configurations. The taxonomic implications of this result are discussed in relation to the recent literature.
