Neogloboquadrina incompta


Classification: pf_cenozoic -> Globorotaliidae -> Neogloboquadrina -> Neogloboquadrina incompta
Sister taxa: N. pachyderma, N. incompta, N. inglei ⟩⟨ N. dutertrei, N. humerosa, N. acostaensis, N. atlantica, N. sp.

Taxonomy

Citation: Neogloboquadrina incompta (Cifelli, 1961)
taxonomic rank: species
Basionym: Globigerina incompta
Synonyms:
Taxonomic discussion: The left and right coiling forms of N. pachyderma were regarded as ecophenotypes for a long period, but are now known from field observations (Brummer & Kroon 1988) and molecular genetic studies to be distinct species. N. pachyderma is the left coilng / sinistral form whilst the right coiling/dextral, warmer water form is now named N. incompta, following the reccomendation of Darling et al. (2006).

Catalog entries: Globigerina incompta, Neogloboquadrina pachyderma dextralis, Globorotalia (Turborotalia) incisa, Globorotalia (Turborotalia) planispira

Distinguishing features:
Parent taxon (Neogloboquadrina): Cancellate wall; umbilical-extraumbilical aperture:
This taxon: Like N. pachyderma but predominantly dextral coiling. Coiling looser and umbilicus more open than in N. pachyderma.

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.
