Family Hantkenininidae. Upper Cretaceous-Eocene.
Entries in the Catalog of original descriptions: Eohastigerinella
Distinguishing features:
Parent taxon (Globigerinelloididae): Test planispiral, chambers globular to radially elongate; aperture at the base of the chamber face and equatorial in position, lateral portions of primary aperture may remain open as new chambers are added, forming relict openings around the umbilical region.
This taxon: Test planispirally enrolled and involute, biumbilicate, early chambers globular and inflated, later ones radially elongate, and final one or two chambers clavate, sutures distinct, depressed; wall calcareous, moderately coarsely perforate, radial, surface pitted; aperture equatorial, an interiomarginal arch bordered with a distinct lip, lateral extremities of the aperture commonly remaining open as relict supplementary apertures around the umbilicus as new chambers are added.
