Haplophragmoides sp. 3

Figure 19.3

Material. One specimen from the sample PC060615.

Description. Test free, subcircular in outline, planispiral involute coil with 7 chambers in the ultimate whorl. Sutures few incise, and acute periphery. In umbilical position, one chamber of the penultimate whorl is visible.
