Taxonomy

Citation: Muricohedbergella Huber&Leckie, 2011
taxonomic rank: Genus
Type species: Muricohedbergella delrioensis (Carsey, 1926)

Original description:

Test wall moderately thick, multilamellar, finely perforate, wall pores variably spaced in adult chambers, surface moderately to coarsely muricate or pustulose, never with a keel, raised sutures or imperforate peripheral margin. Test small to moderate in size, coiled in a very low to low trochospire, spiral side evolute, umbilical side mostly involute; chambers globular, never elongated radially, increasing slowly to moderately in size, with 4.5-7 in the final whorl; aperture a low interiomarginal, umbilical-extraumbilical arch that is bordered by a thick lip or flap that may extend partly into the umbilical region.

Entries in the Catalog of original descriptions: Muricohedbergella

Distinguishing features:
Parent taxon (Hedbergellidae): Test trochospirally coiled, primary aperture interiomarginal, extraumbilical-umbilical, with prominent apertural lip, apertures of earlier chambers remain visible around the umbilical region; no sutural secondary apertures.
This taxon: Test wall multilamellar, finely perforate, wall pores, surface moderately to coarsely muricate or pustulose; test coiled in a very low to low trochospire; chambers globular with 4.5-7 in the final whorl; aperture a low interiomarginal, umbilical-extraumbilical arch bordered by a thick lip or flap.
