R. Timothy Patterson

Abstract. Globofissurella, a new genus of Oolininae, differs from other genera of the subfamily by its costate test and fissurine aperture. The type species Globofissurella scotti sp. nov., and an additional species, Globofissurella bulabrum sp. nov. are also described. Cerebrina gen. nov., type species Cerebrina perplexa sp. nov. differs from other genera of the subfamily Oolininae by its reticulate surface sculpture and fissurine aperture.
