1959 Globigerina bulbosa LeRoy — Blow, pp. 174, 175, pl. 9, fig. 37.

1968 Globigerina bulbosa LeRoy — Huang, pl. 11, fig. 3.

1969 Globigerina bulbosa LeRoy — Blow, pl. 13, figs. 3—6.

Remarks. As Blow (1959) noted, this species is closely related to Globigerina foliata but can be differentiated by its radially elongated form.

Occurrence. Sporadic in the Onogoshi, Yonahama, and Minebari formations.
