Caron (1985):
This species differs from R.ticinensis only in the absence of a keel on the last few chambers
Gasinski (1988):
Remarks: This species is not only of palaeobiological importance, being a
form that is ancestral to R. ticinensis, but also of biostratigraphical value as a
zonal marker (Robaszynski & Caron, 1979; Wonders, 1980; Caron, 1985).
Nevertheless, some authors (e.g. Masters, 1977) include R. subticinensis in
synonymy with R. ticinensis (Gandolfi).
Local stratigraphic range: Hedbergella assemblage Zone (FAD unknown
here) to the top of R. subticinensis-R. ticinensis Zone.
Pflaumann & Krasheninnikov (1977):
This species is very rare in Hole 369A: Samples 42-2, -3, CC
occurring slightly before and within the range of R. ticinensis.
Transitional forms between R. ticinensis and R. subticinensis are more
common (Plate 6, Figure 4). |
