Phylogenetic relations
N. humerosa occurs throughout the tropical to warm subtropical areas and represents the warmer-water variant of a latitudinal cline, grading into the temperate form N. subcretacea (Srinivasan and Kennett,1976). N. humerosa is also evolutionarily intermediate between N. acostaensis and N. dutertrei.
Most likely ancestor: Neogloboquadrina acostaensis - at confidence level 3 (out of 5). Data source: Kennett & Srinivasan 1983, fig 21; Aze et al. 2011.
Likely descendants: Neogloboquadrina dutertrei;
