| Diagnosis / Definition: | ||||||
| Pearson et al. (2006): DESCRIPTION. Type of wall: Microperforate, though low latitude forms may have macroperforations, smooth to finely pustulose. Test morphology: Test elongate, somewhat compressed, sometimes slightly twisted, gradually to moderately tapering, peripheral margin subrounded; chambers biserial, increasing gradually in size, sutures flush to slightly depressed and oblique in first two to three pairs of chambers, later more strongly depressed and nearly horizontal; aperture a semicircular arch with a thin lip that projects on one side more than the other and an internal toothplate that connects foramina of successive chambers. Size: Holotype length 0.21 mm, width 0.13 mm, breadth 0.09 mm; length range 0.15-0.22 mm. | ||||||

| Pearson et al. (2006): DISTINGUISHING FEATURES.- Distinguished from Chiloguembelina ototara and Chiloguembelina crinita by the more compressed and tapering test and smoother test surface. DISCUSSION- It is not clear what criteria Beckmann (1957) used to distinguish his species Chiloguembelina victoriana Beckmann (see holotype, PI. 16.3, Figs. 1-2) from his concept of C. martini, as his examples of morphologic variability for the two species show considerable overlap in test elongation and degree of chamber appression. The illustrated hypotypes (Pl. 16.3, Figs. 3-8) show a similar variability. For this reason, and because of priority, C. victoriana is considered a junior synonym of S. martini. Samanta (1973) distinguished his species Chiloguembelina woodi from S. martini by the presence of more globular chambers and by possessing a broader, subcircular, symmetrical aperture. We unite these taxa here in the absence of detailed information on how these characters vary in populations of S. martini. PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIPS.- Probably derived from Chiloguembelina crinita during the middle Eocene. STRATIGRAPHIC RANGE.- Middle Eocene Zone E l0 to lower Oligocene Zone O1. Liu and others (1 997) recorded the range of C. victoriana (= S. martini) from Zone P 12 (-Zone E l l) through Zone P 16 (=Zone E 15) in the Atlantic City borehole (New Jersey Coastal Plain Drilling Project). Resig (1993) recorded the H0 of S. martini in middle Zone P18 (=01) at ODP Sites 806 and 807 (Ontong Java Plateau), but the L0 was not recovered at those sites. GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION.- Cosmopolitan. STABLE ISOTOPE PALEOBIOL0GY.- No data available. REPOSITORY.- Mineralogische Geologische Instituut, State University, Utrecht, The Netherlands. | ||||||
