DESCRIPTION

All Subbetic specimens are incomplete, some preserving part of the BC. Shells are medium-sized, involute to moderately involute with narrow to moderately narrow umbilicus, more in outer whorls than inner ones. The whorl section, subrectangular in the inner whorls, becomes high compressed ogival to triangular in the outer ones. The umbilical wall is vertical, the umbilical edge is rounded, the flanks are more or less convex, and the venter has a well-separated floored keel. The inner whorls bear poorly developed ribs, some simple, some bifurcate, slightly sinuous and ventrally projecting, lacking nodes or spines. The middle and outer whorls become smooth. The suture line ( Fig. 8F View FIG ) is rather simple with a wide, shallow, and seldom branched L. The saddles are slightly indented with a broad base, and there are three well-differentiated umbilical lobes.

REMARKS

According to Huf (1968: 97) and Dietze et al. (2011a: 222, 223), the separation of all the members of the “liostraca-group”, Dorsetensia tecta , D. subtecta , and D. liostraca , is purely artificial as they are in reality synonymous. All other Dorsetensia species are more evolute, have a rectangular or subrectangular whorl section, a lower rate of whorl expansion, and the ribbed stage is usually more persistent.

DISTRIBUTION

Specimens of Dorsetensia , belonging to the group of D. liostraca , has been mentioned in the lower part of the Humphriesianum Zone from numerous localities: England (Buckman 1892; Parsons 1977; Chandler et al. 2014; Chandler & Whicher 2015), Scotland ( Morton 1972, 1976), France (Pavia & Sturani 1968; Rioult 1980, Pavia 1983; Pavia et al. 2013, Fernández-López & Mouterde 1994, De Baets et al. 2008), Germany ( Buck et al. 1966; Huf 1968; Dietl & Rieber 1980; Ohmert et al. 1995; Dietze et al. 2008, 2011a, 2013), Poland ( Kopik 1967), Spain (Iberian Mountain range and Betic Cordillera; Fernández-López 1985; Sandoval 1983, 1990), the Caucasus, the Transcaucasus ( Azarjan 1982; Rostovtsev 1991), the Arabian Peninsula ( Énay & Mangold 1994, 2021), and Tibet ( Westermann & Wang 1988). In South America it occurs in Argentina and Chile ( Westermann & Riccardi 1972; Hillebrandt 2001) and in North America it is found in Oregon, United States ( Imlay 1973, 1986; Poulton et al. 1992). In the Subbetic domain, D. liostraca occurs in the Humphriesianum Zone, Romani Subzone from Sierra de Gaena (sections, JGa2 and JGa7), Lucena (Córdoba Province), and from Sierra Arana (section JA2; Granada Province).
