Subspecies Globorotalia (Turborotalia) scitula Brady 1882

Discussion / Comments:

Quilty (1976):
Remarks: This new subspecies, which remains unnamed, has the essential apertural and coiling characters of G. scitula s. I. but has a looser spiral leading to the development of an open umbilicus, 5 chambers to the final whorl, and it is also dorsoventrally more compressed, although the periphery is no more angular than in other subspecies. Ventral intercameral sutures are markedly more recurred distally than is other subspecies of G. scitula.
