Subspecies Sphaeroidinellopsis seminulina seminulina Schwager 1866


Diagnosis / Definition:
Kennett & Srinivasan (1983):
Test low trochospiral, compact, equatorial periphery broadly ovate to slightly trilobulate; three subglobular chambers in the final whorl; sutures obscured by heavy cortex; surface coarsely perforate, covered by secondary layer of shell material (cortex) reducing the pore openings and providing a smooth, polished, and glossy appearance to the test . Umbilicus open; aperture an elongate umbilical opening bordered by thickened crenulate margin.
Discussion / Comments:
Srinivasan (1975):
This form is characterized by having only three chambers in the final whorl, a distinctly lobate equatorial outline, and a low umbilical aperture. Sphaeroidinella rutschi (figured by Bolli, 1957, pl. 26, figs. 6-7) is considered to be a junior synonym of S. seminulina seminulina (Schwager).
