It is included in the Subfamily Hedbergellinae due to its strong resemblance in gross test architecture to Hedbergella planispira (Tappan) of the late Albian-Santonian, presumably its ancestor. The genus is monospecific.completedInvertebrate paleontologyAtlantic OceanCampanianCretaceousDeep Sea Drilling ProjectDSDP Site 511Falkland PlateauForaminiferaHedbergellidaeInvertebrataIPODLeg 71Liuella falklandicalower CampanianMesozoicmicrofossilsmorphologynew taxaphylogenyplanktonic taxaProtistaSEM dataSenonianSouth AtlantictaxonomyUpper Cretaceousurn:org.iodp:exp:71urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:71:site:511urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:71urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignEnglishgeoscientificInformation-46.5818-46.5818-51.0017-51.0017
