Boudagher-Fadel et al. (1997):
Remarks: C. aravica is a very high spired species, and the spire of the holotype itself is fifty per cent higher than the tes is broad (our new photograph of the holotype (Plate 2.4, Fig. 1) shows it well). The same ratio is seen in our figured paratype (Plate 2.4, Fig. 1). There are three
subglobular chambers in the final whorl; the aperture
is an arch within the small umbilicus. There
are about five chambers in the earliest whorls,
judging from the paratypes figured here (Plate 2.4,
Fig. 6) and by Morozova (1961, pl. 2, fig. 12).
The paratypes figured by Morozova (1961) with
four chambers in the last whorl (including that
figured here, Plate 2.4, Fig. 5) are referred by us
to C. dagestanica. The wall of the test may seem
smooth under the lower magnification, but SEM
shows it to be covered by pseudomuricae (Plate
2.4, Fig. 4) |
