Species Gallitellia vivans Cushman 1934



Discussion / Comments:
Kroon & Nederbragt (1990):
Gallitellia viuans has globular chambers and deeply depressed sutures. Its aperture is a small symmetric arc at the base of the last chamber. Some fullgrown specimens show the development of multiserial chambers. Gallitellia uivans has been reported from Recent and Quaternary sediments in the Pacific, the Indian Ocean, Indonesia and the Gulf of Mexico. We found it in a late Pliocene sample from Timor, Indonesia, sample Tim179 [for details, see De Smet et al., submitted (b) 1. We found living G. vivans in Snellius Cruise GO plankton tow samples (see Fig. 2).
