Species Lilliputianella kuhryi Longoria 1974



Discussion / Comments:
Banner & Desai (1988):
L. kuhryi may be distinguished by its very broad shallow umbilicus, equal in diameter to as much as 1, of that of the whole test, and by its subspherical chambers which become radially ovoid and pointed and laterally compressed in the latter half of the final whorl. The low aperture extends from the umbilicus fully to ihe periphery and possesses a narrow porticus; relict apertures and portici are visible in the chambers of the last half at least of the last whorl.
Boudagher-Fadel et al. (1997):
Remarks: This species has six chambers in the final whorl; chambers are subspherical, but the last three become radially ovoid, pointed and laterally compressed. The umbilicus is broad and shallow with a diameter equal to as much as a third of that of the whole test.
