Globorotalia bouregregensis, a new species of planktonic foraminifer from the latest Miocene–early Pliocene of the Rifian Seaway (northwest Morocco)

Roberto Barbieri and Gian Gabriele Ori

Abstract. Globorotalia bouregregensis, n. sp., is described and documented from the latest Miocene-early Pliocene sequence of the Rifian Seaway, northwest Morocco. By its short stratigraphic distribution, persistence and distinctive morphologic features, the new taxon is well differentiated within the scituline assemblage.
