Species Acarinina subsphaerica Subbotina 1947



Discussion / Comments:
Pearson et al. (2006):
DISCUSSION.- A full synonymy and discussion of this taxon was given in Berggren and Norris (1997) and Olsson and others (1999). This form was used to delineate subzone P4a of Zone P4 by Berggren and others (1 995). However, subsequent investigations have shown that subsphaerica has its highest common occurrence within the mid-part of the range of Globanomalina pseudomenardii (i.e., Zone P4) while ranging sporadically up into Zone P6a (=Zone E3 of this work) (Quillevere, 1999). However, there remains, as pointed out by Blow (1979, p. 961) a distinct stratigraphic gap between the H0 of subsphaerica (which Blow ascribed to lower Zone P5) and the L0 of its dorso-conical homeomorph alticonica (in Zone P8b) and an even larger gap to the L0 ofpseudosubsphaerica as differentiated and delineated here in Zone E7 (=Zone P9 of Berggren and others, 1995). STRATIGRAPHIC Range.- Base of Zone P4 to P4a/b (highest common occurrence); sporadic to Zone E3.
