Description: The wall is calcareous and covered with short spines. The test is elongate, slightly arcuate, uniserial and circular in cross-section.Approximately six rounded conical chambers are connected to the next by a short neck. The base of each chamber is covered with hirsute structures. The aperture is terminal, at the end of a short neck.
Remarks: The specimen is long (2 mm) and thin (0.5 mm). The relative abundance is generally low, forming trace components (<1%) in some of the samples of core 2670.
Life strategy: Laevidentalina spp. are regarded as being infaunal ( Alegret et al., 2003) under varying oxygen conditions ( Cimerman & Langer, 1991; Sgarella & Moncharmont Zei, 1993; Rögl & Spezzaferri, 2002; Milker & Schmiedl, 2012).
Global stratigraphic range: The stratigraphic range for the genus Laevidentalina is Cretaceous to Recent ( Loeblich & Tappan, 1988).
Regional occurrence: This species is recorded to occur in middle Miocene sediments on the Namibian outer continental shelf, south of the Kunene River mouth (this study).
