Original Description
Extra details from original publication
I am not sure if this material corresponds with WHITE'S Gümbelina elegans, as he does not give the range of variation of his specimens. The fossil he figures as G. elegans is more flattened than the average of the Habana material. M. P. WHITE, 1929, has not proved that his fossils correspond with Gümbelina elegans (RZEHAK), because it is not certain that RZEHAK, 1891, was wrong in giving his material the name of Cuneolina elegans, or at least that he was wrong in reckoning it to the Textularidae. Besides, RZEHAK'S material is of Tertiary age. Whether WHITE'S material corresponds with PLUMMER's fig. 1, Pl. 2, is uncertain too, though the fossils resemble each other. PLUMMER's picture is from a smaller specimen and comes from the Upper Cretaceous (Navarro) of Texas.
