Wetzeliella neocomica forma neocomica
From Fensome et al., 2019:
Wetzeliella? neocomica forma neocomica Gocht, 1957
Autonym. Now redundant.
Taxonomic junior synonyms: Phoberocysta neocomica subsp. circulata, Phoberocysta neocomica subsp. cruciformis and Phoberocysta neocomica subsp. dedecosa, by implication in Monteil (1991b, p.477), who listed these taxa as taxonomic junior synonyms of Phoberocysta neocomica
Holotype: Gocht, 1957, pl.19, fig.1; text-fig.7
Locus typicus: Ruehlertwist, Emsland, NW Germany
Stratum typicum: Hauterivian
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Translation Gocht, 1957: LPP
Original description: Gocht 1957, p. 172-176
Diagnosis: Shell flattened, extremely variable in shape, generally more or less 4-5 sided, delicate. Closed edge rare; Shell all around mostly developing into bilayered and exteriorly closed projections, which may be located at several levels, but which are essentially limited to the region of the outer margin. Among them, an apical horn, two lateral horns, and an antapical horn smay often be clearly distinguished. Projections and horns often provided with pointed, blunt or trumpet shaped, flat protruberances or processes, which almost exclusively stand along the outline, and rarely on the surface. On the front and back sides projections or processes are sporadic. Along the margins of the apical and antapical horns, the protruberancesare are often arranged alternatively. Lateral horns mostly slightly squat, broad-based, sometimes slightly bent, giving rise to a slightly V-shaped cross-section. Projections and processes may be considerably reduced or extremely enlarged, as well as the horns, which may also partly be missing or be unrecognizable as such. Exceptionally, denticulate ridges or idications of a transverse furrow occur on the shell. Inner body delicate, with a more or less oval outline.
