57, pl. 2F, fig. 10, non 8–9 (= Gen. et sp. indet.) (Maastrichtian Auradu Fm. of Somalia).

Remarks: This species has been described by Farinacci and Köylüoğlu (1985) from the upper Maastrichtian of SW Turkey. The type-locality belongs to the Bey Dağlari Autochthon, part of the Western Taurides (see Sarı et al., 2009). Farinacci and Köylüoğlu (1985) assigned Antalyna to the family Nezzazatidae Hamaoui & Saint- Marc (agglutinating wall) and notwithstandingly to the superfamily Miliolacea Ehrenberg (porcellaneous wall). A. korayi is not rather frequent in the Iranian Tarbur Formation ( Fig. 3 p-t). It has a low trochospirally coiled test with angular periphery, and a shallow delicate subepidermal meshwork (with "partitions" of equal length).
