Species Globorotalia (Hirsutella) bermudezi Rögl & Bolli 1973



Alternative name:
Globorotalia bermudezi Rögl & Bolli 1973
Diagnosis / Definition:
Kennett & Srinivasan (1983):
Test very small, low trochospiral, equatorial periphery subcircular, lobulate, axial periphery broadly rounded to subangular, slightly biconvex; five to six chambers in the final whorl; increasing uniformly in size as added, chambers on umbilical side more inflated; sutures on spiral side curved, depressed; on umbilical side sinuously radial, depressed; surface thin, smooth, with irregularly distributed small, circular pores; umbilicus open, deep; aperture a low arch with a distinct but thin lip, interiomarginal, umbilical-extraumbilical.
Discussion / Comments:
Kennett & Srinivasan (1983):
Gr. (H.) bermudezi is considered to have evolved from Gr. (H.) scitula in the latest Pliocene. Gr. (H.) bermudezi is much smaller, possesses inflated chambers on the umbilical side, and exhibits a more irregularly perforated test than G. (H.) scitula. Because of its very small size, this species has not been identified by many workers.
