Taxonomy

Citation: Globoturborotalita cancellata (Pessagno, 1963)

taxonomic rank: species

Basionym: Globigerina ampliapertura cancellata Pessagno, 1963

Synonyms:

Globigerina ampliapertura cancellata Pessagno, 1963:58, pl. 1, figs. 7-9, paratype; pl. 2, figs. 15-17 holotype [upper Oligocene Globorotalia opima opima Zone, Juana Díaz Fm., Puerto Rico].

Taxonomic discussion:

Globoturborotalita cancellata apparently is a little known or overlooked species among Oligocene workers probably due to its low numbers in samples. Pessagno (1963) considered this species as a subspecies of Turborotalia ampliapertura, however, in agreement with Blow (1969) and Jenkins (1971) we consider these forms to be unrelated. Blow (1979) suggested this species was referrable to Dentoglobigerina, however, our studies of the wall texture and aperture morphology indicate it belongs in Globoturborotalita. [Spezzaferri et al. 2018]

Distinguishing features:
Parent taxon (Globoturborotalita): Trochospiral test with a single, large, open umbilical aperture. Cancellate wall. 4-4½ chambers in final whorl
This taxon: Low trochospiral, globular, 3½-4 chambers in final whorl, increasing rapidly in size. The last chamber forms ca. ⅓ of the test. Umbilicus large, open. Aperture umbilical, a low rounded arch, with a thin rim

NB These concise distinguishing features statements are used in the tables of daughter-taxa to act as quick summaries of the differences between e.g. species of one genus.
They are being edited as the site is developed and comments on them are especially welcome.

Description

Morphology:

Low trochospiral, globular, consisting of 3 whorls. The profile is lobulate, with globular chambers; in spiral view 3½-4 globular, slightly embracing chambers in ultimate whorl, increasing rapidly in size. The last chamber generally consists of a third of the test. The sutures are depressed, slightly curved; in umbilical view 3½-4 globular, slightly embracing chambers, increasing rapidly in size, sutures depressed, slightly curved, umbilicus large, open, enclosed by surrounding chambers, aperture umbilical, a low rounded arch, bordered by a thin thickened rim; in edge view chambers globular, slightly embracing, initial whorl slightly elevated. [Spezzaferri et al. 2018]

Wall type:

Normal perforate, spinose, sacculifer-type wall, pore concentrations average 22 pores/50 μm2 test surface area.

Size:

Maximum diameter of holotype 0.28 mm, minimum diameter 0.26 mm, maximum width 0.2 mm. [Spezzaferri et al. 2018]

Isotope paleobiology

No data available. [Spezzaferri et al. 2018]

Phylogenetic relations

Globoturborotalita cancellata probably evolved from Globoturborotalita bassriverensis. [Spezzaferri et al. 2018]

Most likely ancestor: Globoturborotalita bassriverensis - at confidence level 3 (out of 5). Data source: Spezzaferri et al. 2018.
Likely descendants: Globoturborotalita occlusa; Globoturborotalita paracancellata; plot with descendants

Biostratigraphic distribution

Geological Range:
Notes: Zone E16 to O5? [Spezzaferri et al. 2018]
Last occurrence (top): within O5 zone (26.93-28.09Ma, top in Chattian stage). Data source: Spezzaferri et al. 2018
First occurrence (base): within E16 zone (33.9-34.68Ma, base in Priabonian stage). Data source: Spezzaferri et al. 2018

Plot of occurrence data:

Range-bar - range as quoted above, pink interval top occurs in, green interval base occurs in.
Triangles indicate an event for which a precise placement has been suggested
(NB There is no histogram as there are no occurrence records for the taxon in the Neptune database) Parent: Globoturborotalita
