More precisely Globorotalia (Globorotalia) albeari Cushman & Bermúdez, 1949
That seems a bit debatable, it is always given in the paper as Globorotalia albeari, but arguably they should have used the name Globorotalia (Globorotalia) albeari since they differentiated Globorotalia ss from Globorotalia (Truncorotalia). However, my general practice in the catalog is to document the names under which the species were described rather than my interpretation of the correct name (with some exceptions...)
