Siphodinarella costata n. gen., n. sp., a new benthic foraminifer from the Coniacian of the Adriatic Carbonate Platform (Slovenia, Croatia)

A new benthic foraminifer is described as Siphodinarella costata n. gen., n. sp. from Coniacian shallow-water platforminterior carbonates of Slovenia and Croatia. The new foraminifer is found in skeletal wackestone in association with small benthic foraminifera, thaumatoporellaceans, and calcimicrobes (Decastronema, Girvanella-type tubes). The existence of an internal siphon in Siphodinarella n. gen. is interpreted as an entosolenian tube and discussed in terms of its generic and suprageneric importance.
