| Diagnosis / Definition: | ||||||
|
Kennett & Srinivasan (1983): Test relatively large, a relatively low trochospire consisting of two and one-half to three whorls of slowly enlarging chambers, four and one-half to five chambers in the final whorl; spiral side slightly convex, umbilical side highly conical; periphery bluntly rounded and thickened on early chambers, but on later chambers more sharply angled, with a narrow, cord like keel; sutures on spiral side strongly recurved, slightly raised, on umbilical side depressed, radial to slightly curved. Surface finely perforate, but earlier chambers show a progressive secondary thickening, especially on the periphery and on the umbilical surface. Umbilicus small, open;aperture interiomarginal, umbilical-extraumbilical, a low, distinct arch bordered by an indistinct rim. |

| Discussion / Comments: | ||||||

Kennett & Srinivasan (1983): Gr. (G.) conoidea differs from Gr. (G.) miozea by its much larger size, by its much more conical umbilical side, and by its tendency to develop a distinct keel. Globorotalia miotumida Jenkins may represent a thin-walled form of Gr. (G.) conoidea Walters. If so, it should have priority. |
