Discussion / Comments: | ||||||
Kennett & Srinivasan (1983): Gr. (T.) tosaensis resembles Gr. (T.) truncatulinoides in general appearance but is distinguished primarily by the absence of a peripheral keel . It differs from Gr. (T.) crassaformis in its rounded equatorial profile and by having more than four chambers in the final whorl. |
