Pseudokomewuia laevigata ssp. fusiformis
Pseudokomewuia laevigata ssp. fusiformis He Chengquan, 1984
Holotype: He Chengquan, 1984, pl.3, fig.6
Age: Tertiary
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Original description: [He Chengquan, 1984b] (translated from Chinese with Google):
Pseudokomewuia (Pseudokomewuia) laevigata subsp. fusiformis (subsp. nov.)
(Plate III, Figures 5-9)
This subspecies has a strong apical horn and a rather small caudal horn. The former has a smooth or coarsely granular surface, measuring 4–10 microns long and 5–10 microns wide at the base; the latter is 2.5–5 microns long and 2.5–5 microns wide at the base. The shell is 40–57.5 microns long and 40–56 microns wide; the holotype is 57.5 microns long and 55 microns wide. Other characteristics are the same as described for the species. This subspecies is distinguished from its two other subspecies by the much larger apical horn than the caudal horn.
Origin: Shangsi, Guangxi; the second section of the Yongning Group.
