Subfamily ENDOSTAFFELLINAE Loeblich & Tappan, 1984 View in CoL

Tests small, nautiloid, lenticular or discoid strongly quasiendothyroid (i.e., with numerous chambers), often umbilicate or biumbilicate. Strong deviations of axis; rarely planispiral. Sutures faint to absent. Pseudochomata generally present. No case of uncoiling. Wall dark simple, microgranular, stable ( Endostaffella Rozovskaya, 1961 ) to recrystallized ( Euxinita Conil & Dîl in Conil, Longerstaey & Ramsbottom, 1980). Aperture terminal, simple.

Remark: Zellerinella Mamet, 1981 was included as valid in the subfamily Endostaffelinae in Vachard & Le Coze (2022). It was confirmed as a junior subjective of Endostaffella Rozovskaya, 1961 in Kobayashi & Vachard (2022). The same opinion was shared earlier by many authors (Kobayashi & Vachard (2022) with references therein).

Composition: Endostaffella Rozovskaya, 1961 ; Euxinita Conil & Dil, 1980 ; Praeostaffellina Cózar, Somerville & Burgess, 2008 ; Praeplectostaffella Cózar, Somerville & Burgess, 2008 .
