Abstract

Seasonal and spatial differences in coiling in Recent neogloboquadrinids seem to be controlled mainly by differences in food requirements and associated timing of reproduction between the leftand right-coiled types. The observation that the change in coiling from dominantly left to right takes place at surface water temperatures ranging from 79?C in high Northern Hemisphere latitudes to 14.5'C in the Walvis Bay region suggests that the significance of temperature in coiling in neogloboquadrinids is overestimated in the literature.
