Description: Distinguished from G. woodi woodi by its more compact test with lower arched aperture.
Distribution: Upper Waitakian to lower Altonian (G. woodi connecta-zone, Jenkins 1971).
Comment: In some populations it appears to be a variant of G. woodi. Regarded by Jenkins and by Kennett & Srinivasan as a transitional evolutionary stage between G. woodi and Globigerinoides trilobus.
