Fig. 9. Geographical distribution of the records of the occurrences of Fusopsis in the 155,000 samples collected with the Continuous Plankton Recorder (CPR) across the North Atlantic from 1958 to 1998, adapted from CPR (2004). Note the occurrence records from north of approximately 45°N and into the Arctic waters, in contrast to the absence of records from localities south of about 45°N. The CPR is a plankton sampling device towed by ships of opportunity which provides samples of the plankton of near surface waters captured on a filter gauze of approximately 270 µm mesh. For details see Beaugrand (2004) and CPR (2004). For the history of the device see Dolan (2022).
