Distinguishing features: Species have a low trochospiral test and 3-4 spherical chambers in the final whorl, and a final sac-like chamber on mature specimens. The species has one offset umbilical aperture and supplementary apertures and a cancellate shell surface texture. Typical adult size >250 microns. Variants: (see André et al. 2013 and Brummer & Kucera 2022 for discussion): Globigerinoides quadrilobatus; Globigerinoides immaturus; Globigernoides trilobus; Globigerinoides suleki More information: mikrotax gbif André et al. 2013 Brummer & Kucera 2022 |
Downloadable Data:
There are 3 scanned T. sacculifer shells.
Note: Data 'stacks' contain the minimally processed 3D data (TIF files) that can be imported into your favorite 3D data processing software program (we use imageJ). The STL file is processed and ready for 3D printing. Each foram also has a 3D model that you can manipulate online.
