Remarks. Cushman (1913) distinguished Uvigerina canariensis from Uvigerina proboscidea mainly on the basis of the absence of long spines on the surface of the former. Such features, however, occasionally disappear in poorly preserved (abraded, etched, or recrystallized) specimens, making it difficult to distinguish these taxa.

Loeblich and Tappan’s (1994) Neouvigerina ampullacea is not the same species as Jones’s (1994) Siphouvigerina ampullacea , but is conspecific with E. canariensis . In the synonymy of Loeblich and Tappan’s (1994) N. ampullacea , they included several U. proboscidea of previous papers, suggesting that many records of U. proboscidea in those papers possibly should be identified as U. canariensis .

Occurrence. Common in the Yonahama and Minebari formations.
