Discussion / Comments: | ||||||
Kennett & Srinivasan (1983): Gr. (G.) praescitula is distinguished from its ancestor Gr. (G.) zealandica by an increase in number of chambers in the final whorl from four to four and one-half, an increase in curvature of the sutures on the umbilical side, peripheral compression, and a return to a low-arched aperture. |
