marked keel; quinqueloculine forms are more slender, having a lowtriangular<br />

differ from Q. pseudobuchiana sp.n. in their more slender shape and<br />

rounded or subrounded, not acute or keeled, periphery. The massiline<br />

forms most resemble Q. araucana d'Orbigny from Recent seas, differ<br />

however in being twice as large and in having a more oval shape and<br />

a broader and bigger middle chamber. The quinqueloculine forms differ<br />

from Q. laevigata d'Orbigny in broader chambers and in more flattened<br />

walls.<br />
