Material 2 specimens, Dominican Republic, Tortonian , Cercado FM , 1 specimen NMB 15912 View Materials ( NMB P396 View Materials ) , 1 specimen NMB 16837 View Materials ( NMB P410 View Materials ) .

Discussion Two moderately large specimens (the figured one is 2.65 mm in length) differ from the otherwise similar B. gatunensis in the robust appearance and completely smooth rims without crenulation. It is possible that these specimens still fall within the variability of B. gatunensis , but because they too are found only in the north Dominican Basin it is also possible that they represent yet another species. More specimens from that region must be awaited before a reliable identification can be made.
