Thoracosphaeraceae

Scrippsiella trochoidea, from Phyto'pedia.


Belongs within: Peridinea.
Contains: Oodiniaceae.

The Thoracosphaeraceae are a group of dinoflagellates of which many members are unique among alveolates in producing calcareous structures, either as resting cysts or during vegetative stages (Gottschling et al. 2005, as Calciodinellaceae), though molecular phylogenies also indicate the inclusion of a number of non-calcareous taxa in this clade.
