Species Tenuitella munda Jenkins 1966

Discussion / Comments:

Van Eijden & Smit (1991):
Remarks. Usually rare if present and commonly hard to recognize, this species does not seem to be a good marker species, although it is used as such by Jenkins (1966).
Chaisson & Leckie (1993):
Remarks: This small, four-chambered taxon is very rare in Hole 806B. Similar species: Tenuitella munda is smaller than Globigerinella obesa and has a microperforate wall as compared with the finely macroperforate wall of G. obesa.
