Extra details from original publication
This species differs from G. globulosa in the much compressed test, early portion keeled and roughened, and the later portion smooth imd polished. It seems to be confined to rocks of Navarro age, occurring in the Corsicana marl, Kemp clay, and Prairie Bluff chalk. The specimens from the Georges Bank Canyon in the reference above also belong here.
