New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research abstractsNEW ZEALAND RECENT FORAMINIFERA OF THE FAMILIES ISLANDIELLIDAE AND CASSIDULINIDAEJ. V. EadeNew Zealand Oceanographic Institute, Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, WellingtonAbstract Morphology and distribution of nineteen New Zealand Recent species of Foraminifera of the families Islandiellidae and Cassidulinidae are discussed. One new genus, Evolvocassidulina, and four new species, Favocassidulina australis, Globocassidulina canalisuturata, Globocassidulina spherica, and Ehrenbergina carinata, are described and figured. The use of radial and granular wall structure as a fundamental character in classification is supported by its uniformity in individual genera and species.
