Enrique Espinosa Apr 27, 2008:
Creo que Deborah y Rachel están en lo correcto. Debe conservarse el nombre latín. Me disculpo porque pensé solamente en el par de idiomas, y no en la escencia del nombre de este minúsculo globuligerinido (en forma de globo, pues...)

Oxfordian Globuligerina

Just misspelled...
Their temporal implications are contradicted, however, by rare Globuligerina
and Trocholina, which suggest a lesser age than that implied by the calpionellids, and in turn undermine the ages
inferred for the medial part of the interval. In the end, the discontinuous but normal succession of planktonic foraminifer
and calpionellid
