Taxonomic research of the subfamily Recurvoidinae (Foraminifera) in 1999
Abstract
The revision of Cretaceous-Paleogene Recurvoidinae described from the Alpine-Carpathian region continued in 1999 by revision of type collection deposited in Vienna (NOTH 1952, FUCHS 1971) and Bucharest (NEAGU 1970, NEAGU-PLATON 1994, SANDULESCU 1971, 1973). Some taxa were recognized as synonyms: Thalmannammina meandertornata = Recurvoides godulensis, Recurvoides minimus = R. labrospiriformis, Thalmannammina plectorecurvoidiformis = Recurvoides, recurvoidiformis. Subfamily Recurvoidinae is redefined to include forms with areal aperture and variety of irregular coiling modes except for planispiral and trochospiral. The following genera are therefore included into the Recurvoidinae subfamily: Cribrostomoides, Plectorecurvoides, pokornyammina, Recurvoides, Thalmannammina, Thalmannorecurvoides and tentatively Budashevaella and Recurvoidatus. A comprehensive list of 205 species and subspecies referable to Recurvoidinae is given.
