Description
Summary:FIGURE 4. Specimens of Conicocassis pontigulasiformis gen. et comb. nov. from lakes in Yellowknife region, Northwest Territories, Canada. 1, dorsal view of a specimen from sample BC8 showing the distinct main test body and distinctive upper funnel-like flange; 2, apertural view of a specimen collected from sample BC12 showing large aperture; 3, dorsal view of a specimen from sample BC12 with agglutination primarily comprised of large xenogenous particles; 4, oblique view of a test collected from sample BC37 showing orientation of large flange relative to apertural opening; 5, edge view of a specimen in sample BC12 showing the distinctive morphology of the main test body relative to asymmetric flange; and 6, a close-up of the flange of a specimen collected from sample BC12 clearly showing that pennate diatoms, pollen grains and mineral particles are important components of the agglutination of this specimen. ... : Published as part of Nasser, NA & Patterson, R, 2015, Conicocassis, a new genus of Arcellinina (testate lobose amoebae), pp. 1-10 in Palaeontologia Electronica 79 (2) on page 7, DOI: 10.26879/538, http://zenodo.org/record/13305419 ...
