Remarks
The generic identification follows
Becker (1990)
, while the specific follows
Alexander (1934)
. Despite being poorly preserved, the
holotype
of
Praebythoceratina trinodosa
(
Alexander, 1934
)
comb. nov.
presents typical morphological traits that are not common in other Early Cretaceous bythocytherid species – a postero-dorsal tubercle over the lateral u-shaped inflation and the presence of reticulate ornamentation at the central area that slightly fades along adjacent areas – but observable in the present specimens. Compared to
P. amsittenensis
comb. nov.
,
P. trinodosa
comb. nov.
is more slender in lateral view and presents more developed antero-dorsal and postero-dorsal tubercles.
Paleoecology and distribution
Praebythoceratina trinodosa
comb. nov.
is a marine, shelf species occurring in the following localities and stages:
United States
, upper Albian (
Alexander 1934
); and in the present work, Angico and Taquari Members, Riachuelo Formation, Sergipe-Alagoas Basin,
Brazil
, uppermost Aptian–lower Albian,
Aracajuia benderi
zone (MSA-0),
Sergipella viviersae
subzone (MSA-0.2).
