Current identification/main database link: Sphaeroidinellopsis kochi (Caudri, 1934)
Original Description
"It is a small, flat Globigerina, on the upper side of which a close somewhat excentric spiral is seen of small chambers, not easily to be distinguished one from another, while on the other side only 4 chambers are visible. These 4 chambers gradually increase in size from the earliest to the latest and the last chamber is slightly elongated horizontally which gives the test something the appearance of a strongly compressed G. sacculifera. There are, however, no supplementary apertures on the sutures. The four latest formed chambers lie round an undeep umbilicus; no aperture was observed. The fossils were not good enough to supply further details to Koch's original description."
