Alternative name: | ||||||
Diagnosis / Definition: | ||||||
Kennett & Srinivasan (1983): Test large, trochospiral, equatorial periphery oval to elongate; axial periphery acute with a heavy keel, anterior rim of the final chamber bent sharply toward umbilicus; chambers six to seven in the final whorl, with the last chamber showing extreme elongation and infolding of the anterior part toward the umbilicus; spiral sutures limbate, raised, oblique merging with the keel, umbilical sutures sinuously radial, depressed; surface smooth, densely perforate, heavily pustulate on umbilical shoulders; umbilicus narrow, deep; aperture interiomarginal, umbilical-extraumbilical, a low arch bordered by a platelike lip. |
||||||
Discussion / Comments: | ||||||
Kennett & Srinivasan (1983): Gr. (Gr.) tumida flexuosa is similar in all respects with Gr. (Gr.) tumida tumida except for the sharp bend of the anterior part of the final chamber toward the umbilicus. Gr. (Gr.) tumida flexuosa differs from Globorotalia menardii neoflexuosa Srinivasan, Kennett, and Be in having narrower and more elliptical outline, less lobulate periphery, and a heavy keel. |
