Kinkelinella sp. 2

Fig. 8: 12

Material.

5 RV, 5 LV in samples He19-14-17 and Ro19-2.

Occurrence.

Lower to Upper Aalenian, Opalinum Zone ( “Comptum” Subzone) to Bradfordensis Zone; SW Germany.

Description.

Anterior margin broadly rounded, accompanied by a flat marginal bulge. The dorsal margin slightly convex, with the greatest height in front of midlength of the valve. Posterior end flat, with narrowly rounded posterior margin. Ventral margin obscured by the the overhanging ventro-lateral curvature. The central part of the valve is ventrally strongly inflated, and clearly set off against the anterior and posterior ends. Remnants of two ventral ribs are visible parallel to the ventral margin. The remaining part of the valve shows only weak hints of a very fine, irregular reticulation.
