Alternative name:
Diagnosis / Definition:
Bolli (1957):
Shape of test very low trochospiral, spiral side almost flat, umbilical side distinctly convex; equatorial periphery distinctly lobate; axial periphery acute, ornamented with minute spines in well preserved specimens. Wall calcareous, perforate, finely spinose, especially the umbilical side. Chambers angular, inflated; 12-15, arranged in 2 1/2 - 3 whorls, the 5 chambers of the last whorl increasing rapidly in size. Sutures on spiral side strongly curved, slightly depressed; on umbilical side radial, strongly depressed. Umbilicus narrow, deep, open. Aperture a narrow slit; interiomarginal, extraumbilical umbilical. Coiling random. Largest diameter of figured hypotype 0.41
Discussion / Comments:
Bolli (1957):
Globorotalia angulata (White) differs from the ancestral G. uncinata Bolli, new species, in having subangular chambers and an acute periphery. G. angulata is regarded as the ancestor of G. aequa Cushman and Renz. It is further closely related to G. angulata abundocamerata Bolli, new subspecies.
