The taxonomic status of the minute foraminifera Discorbina minutissima Chaster (1892), D. chasteri Heron-Allen & Earland (1913) and related species
This study presents a revision, using type material, of the tiny foraminifera Discorbina minutissima Chaster, D. chasteri Heron-Allen & Earland (erected as a nomen novum for D. minutissima Chaster, non Seguenza) and D. chasteri var. bispinosa Heron-Allen & Earland. All are referred to the ge...
