Triloculina elongotricarinata
Description Test triloculine, with three
visible chambers in the adult, more than
two times longer than broad; chambers
triangular in cross section with isometric,
slightly convex sides; acute margins; wall
smooth and polished; aperture high-arch
shaped, provided with a long thin tooth
somewhat thickened or bifid at the tip.
This species differs from T. tricarinata by
its strait chambers and by its much more
elongated test.
