Subspecies Globigerina soldadoensis angulosa Bolli 1957

Diagnosis / Definition:

Bolli (1957):
Shape of test low trochospiral, spiral side slightly convex to flat, umbilical side strongly inflated; equatorial periphery distinctly lobate; axial periphery subangular. Wall calcareous, perforate, distinctly spinose. Chambers subangular, inflated; about 12, arranged in 2 1/2 whorls, the 5 chambers of the last whorl increasing fairly rapidly in size. Sutures on spiral side oblique, depressed; on umbilical side radial, depressed. Umbilicus medium sized, open. Apertures low arches; interiomarginal umbilical. Coiling random. Largest diameter of holotype 0.57 min.

Discussion / Comments:

Bolli (1957):
Globigerina soldadoensis angulosa Bolli, new subspecies, differs from G. soldadoensis Bronnimann in the more angular shape of the chambers. It also has a more restricted stratigraphic range.
Transitional forms indicate that Globigerina soldadoensis angulosa is likely to be the ancestor of Globorotalia aspensis (Colom).
