Taxonomic discussion: Eoconusphaera hallstattensis and E. zlambachensis have distinctly different organisation of the elements in the core, with irregularly overlapping vertical laths in E. hallstattensis and oblique bundles of regularly arranged laths in E. zlambachensis. Also, E. hallstattensis does not show an axial suture under crossed nicols, while E. zlambachensis does. The two species can be easily distinguished in the LM due to their different inner structures. Finally, the two species are dominant in distinct stratigraphic intervals - Early Rhaetian for E. hallstattensis vs M-L Rhaetian for E. zlambachensis.
