Kennett & Srinivasan (1983): Gg. (Zg.) connecta differs from Gg. (Zg.) woodi in having a compact test and a more highly arched aperture. Morphologically transitional forms connecting these two species occur within the range of Gg. (Zg.) connecta. Gg. (Zg.) connecta evolved from Gg. (Zg.) woodi in the Gg. dehiscens Zone (Early Miocene) and is the immediate ancestor of Globigerinoides triloba. |
