Title: Reinstatement of Nummulites heilprini Hantken, 1886: ABSTRACT

Author(s): R. S. Barnett

Article Type: Meeting abstract

Abstract:

The foraminifer Nummulites heilprini Hantken is shown to be a senior synonym for Operculina trinitatensis Nuttall and Camerina jacksonensis Gravell and Hanna. The test morphology of N. heilprini is quantitatively and qualitatively different from N. willcoxi Heilprin, the first reported American nummulite.
