Editors' Notes
A monotypic genus based on a species representing a morphological variant found in living Orbulina universa, which generally forms only one spherical chamber but may occasionally form a second, hemispherical chamber partially encompassing the previous spherical chamber, as observed during laboratory cultures (Caron et al., 1987; Bonnin et al., 2019), in the living plankton and in down-core sediments ranging into the Miocene. The genus (and species) is rejected as a junior synonym of Orbulina d’Orbigny, 1839a.
