Kaminski, M.A., Babalola, L.O., Patterson, R.T., Vázquez-Riveiros, N. 2014. The wall structure of the agglutinated foraminifer Eggerella advena: its reassignment to the genus Eggerelloides, and description of Eggerelloides belizensis n.sp. Journal of Micropalaeontology.
The foraminiferal species Eggerella advena Cushman, 1922 possesses a noncalcareous imperforate agglutinated wall cemented by organic matter in the form of strands. This wall structure differs markedly from that of the type species of Eggerella, which has a calcareous-cemented wall transversed by simple straight and dichotomously branched pseudopores. We here confirm the transfer of Eggerella advena to the genus Eggerelloides. The new species Eggerelloides belizensis n.sp., from the Seymour-Belize Inlet Complex, British Columbia is described herein.
