Taxonomic discussion: This form, together with A. africana and Morozovella allisonensis, constitute an assemblage of small, morphologically distinct taxa that are characteristic of the temporally short (~200 kyrs) Paleocene Eocene Thermal Maximum. [Berggren et al. 2006]

Catalog entries: Globorotalia sibaiyaensis

Type images:

holotype: G. sibaiyaensis
holotype: G. sibaiyaensis
paratype: G. sibaiyaensis

Distinguishing features: Numerous (5-9) chambers in final whorl, and almost planispiral test

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

Wall type: Muricate, nonspinose, normal perforate. [Berggren et al. 2006]

Morphology: Planoconvex; generally
umbilico-convex, although some specimens approach being planispiral; peripheral margin round to subround; chambers inflated, subtriangular to round on both umbilical and spiral sides; approximately 12-14 chambers arranged in 3 whorls; gradual increase in chamber size throughout; sutures depressed and radial; primary aperture circular, arch-like opening with lip to well-developed flange, umbilical-extraumbilical position extending to peripheral margin.[Berggren et al. 2006]

Size: Maximum diameter of holotype 0.29 mm, minimum diameter 0.19 mm, thickness 0.17 mm; our observations suggest that this form is typically <0.35 mm in maximum diameter. [Berggren et al. 2006]

Biogeography and Palaeobiology

Geographic distribution: Widely distributed throughout the (sub)tropics and temperate regions; common in the central equatorial Pacific (ODP Site 865), found in New Jersey Coastal Plain (Bass River), North Atlantic Ocean (ODP Site 1051), and also present in Tethyan sections of Europe (Alamedilla, Spain) and North Africa (Egypt). [Berggren et al. 2006]
Aze et al. 2011 summary: Low latitudes; based on Berggren et al. (2006b)

Isotope paleobiology: Inferred depth-habitat primarily shallow mixed-layer; carbon isotope signature exhibits strong covariance with shell size; overall stable isotopic signature is analogous to that of modern, symbiotic species (Kelly and others, 1998). [Berggren et al. 2006]
Aze et al. 2011 ecogroup 1 - Open ocean mixed-layer tropical/subtropical, with symbionts. Based on very heavy δ¹³C and relatively light δ¹⁸O. Sources cited by Aze et al. 2011 (appendix S3): Kelly et al. (1998)

Phylogenetic relations: Kelly and others (1996) suggested that this taxon evolved from Acarinina soldadoensis, but it shows much greater similarity with A. esnehensis which we suggest was the ancestor. Further flattening of the test produced the africana morphology (Kelly and others, 1998). [Berggren et al. 2006]

Most likely ancestor: Acarinina esnehensis - at confidence level 4 (out of 5). Data source: Berggren et al. (2006) fig9.2.
Likely descendants: Acarinina africana;

Biostratigraphic distribution

Geological Range:
Notes: Zone E1, restricted to carbon isotope excursion of the PETM. [Berggren et al. 2006]
The FAD of Acarinina sibaiyaensis marks the base of zone E1 / top of P5 (Wade et al. 2011)
Last occurrence (top): at top of E1 zone (100% up, 55.8Ma, in Ypresian stage). Data source: Eocene Atlas
First occurrence (base): at base of E1 zone (0% up, 56Ma, in Ypresian stage). Data source: zonal marker (Wade et al. 2011)

Plot of occurrence data:
