Species Globigerina senni Beckmann 1953

Alternative name:

Globigerina (Eoglobigerina) senni Beckmann 1953

Discussion / Comments:

Toumarkine & Luterbacher (1985):
This compact and thick-walled species is readily distinguished from all other Paleogene globigerinas by the slightly embracing chambers of the last whorl and by the nearly closed umbilicus, which is surrounded by distinct granulations.
Bolli (1957):
Globigerina senni Was originally described by Beckmann as a Sphaeroidinella. Sutural supplementary apertures and chamber flanges, which are typical for the genus Sphaeroidinella, do not exist in this species. It is therefore placed in Globigerina. The species is found in all Navet zones except the highest. It is likely that it developed from the upper Lizard Springs Globigerina taroubaensis Bronnimann, a species lacking the granular particles usually Seen surrounding the umbilical area in Globigerina senni.
Van Eijden & Smit (1991):
Remarks. Occurrences and abundances are not reliable, because as a result of poor preservation we often could not distinguish this species from Acarinina coalingensis (Cushman and Hanna, 1927), which has a more extraumbilical aperture. It seems to range somewhat higher.
