Neoconorbina View in CoL sp. 1 ( Fig. 19 View FIGURE 19 :17–21)
Remarks. These specimens were assigned to Neoconorbina due to their low concical trochospiral test that is circular in outline. The spiral side is convex and densely perforated with an imperforate keel and the umbilical side is flat. The sutures on the spiral test side are strongly curved and limabte with fine pustules. Sutures are depressed on the umbilical side with an open umbilicus and aperture beneath a plate-like folium ( Fig. 19 View FIGURE 19 :17–21).
The material collected from the CG bears strong similarity to the specimens published by Debenay (2012) under Neoconorbina sp. 1 from New Caledonia, and they are likely conspecific. There is also some similarity with Neoconorbina terquemi ( Rzehak 1888) published by Hayward et al. (1999) from the Kermadec Islands but CG specimens lack such an acute periphery, the umbilical side is flat rather than concave and the early subglobular chambers on the spiral side are more distinct.
Distribution within study area. Neoconorbina sp. 1 was collected from Heron, Wistari, One Tree and Sykes Reefs, but never with an abundance of more than five specimens per sample. One Tree Reef had the highest abundance (site 47, Lagoon 3) and Heron Lagoon the lowest. This species was also one of the few that was alive at the time of collection. Although only six live specimens were collected, they were all from either Wistari or One Tree Lagoons with no more than one live specimen per site.
