Taxonomy
Original description: Lunatriella:
Entries in the Catalog of original descriptions: Lunatriella;
Short diagnosis: Test elongate, early chambers subglobular, inflated, and biserially arranged, later chambers more elongate and cuneate to nearly uniserial and rectilinear, the final one or more chambers commonly with an elongate tubulospinelike lateral projection, sutures depressed; wall calcareous, of optically radial calcite, finely perforate; aperture a high interiomarginal arch with narrow bordering lip in the early biserial chambers, in later uniserial chambers the aperture is terminal and the bordering lips merge to form a trough with lateral buttresses that connects directly to the preceding chamber.
Geological Range:
Last occurrence (top): within Turonian Stage (89.77-93.90Ma, top in Turonian stage). Data source: Total of range of species in this database
First occurrence (base): within Cenomanian Stage (93.90-100.50Ma, base in Cenomanian stage). Data source: Total of range of species in this database
Plot of occurrence data:
NB Plotting of Neptune data has been disabled on the Mesozoic pages because the dataset is both small and badly affected by a few sites with erroneous age models (our obs Huber, Petrizzo, Young, Nov 2016). The data can still be viewed via the range plottertool - tools menu.
