CATALOG OF ORIGINAL DESCRIPTIONS: Globorotalia albeari Cushman&Bermudez 1949
This page provides data from the catalog of type descriptions. The catalog is sorted alphabetically. Use the current identification link to go back to the main database.
Original Description Test very small for the genus, strongly biconvex, dorsal side showing all the coils and ventral side only the last-formed whorl, periphery somewhat rounded; chambers not very distinct, 9 to 10 in the last-formed whorl, only slightly inflated ventrally, increasing very gradually in size as added; sutures fairly distinct but only slightly depressed except in the last whorl on the ventral side, rather strongly recurved on the dorsal side; wall slightly spinose, coarsely perforate; aperture an elongate opening on the ventral side of the last-formed chamber extending from nearly the inner end to the periphery and with a distinct thin lip. Size: Diameter 0.30-0.32 mm; thickness 0.20 mm. Etymology: The species is named in honor of Ing. Jesus F. de Albear of the Cuban Geological Survey. Extra details from original publication This species differs from G. praemenardii Cushman and Stainforth in its smaller size, more numerous chambers, more strongly biconvex test, and less umbilicate ventral side. The species has been found only in samples of the Madruga formation where it is a good marker. Editors' Notes The species can also be cited Globorotalia (Globorotalia) albeari, and it should have been thus cited by Cushman & Bermudez 1949 since they differentiated Globrotalia sensu strictu from Globorotalia (Turborotalia). [see ICZN Art 44 Nominotypical taxa].

That seems a bit debatable, it is always given in the paper as Globorotalia albeari, but arguably they should have used the name Globorotalia (Globorotalia) albeari since they differentiated Globorotalia ss from Globorotalia (Truncorotalia). However, my general practice in the catalog is to document the names under which the species were described rather than my interpretation of the correct name (with some exceptions...)
