Genus Purpurina d’Orbigny, 1850 View in CoL
Type species – Purpurina bellona d’Orbigny, 1850
( Figs 76–77)
Material – Single, fragmentary specimen.
Measurements – Inv. No.: BHU 2020I 305; H dam. = 14.2 mm.
Description – A badly worn specimen is available that suggests a moderately high spired Purpurina species with a narrow ramp and rather high outer face of the whorls. Marked, equally sized cords compose the spiral ornament that is crossed by sparse, low, collabral ribs/undulations.
Remarks – The poor preservation does not allow reliable species level identification.
Occurrence – Jhura Dome, Chari Formation, Callovian.
