+ | ''Sanctus sinaicus'' nov. gen et sp. is described from material collected in the uppermost part of the Khaboba Formation and throughout the Tanka and Tayiba formations of Wadi Thal and Wadi Matulla in West–Central Sinai. We assign this new genus and species to the Late Eocene according to associated planktonic foraminiferal assemblages. Its test is symmetrical in axial section with the division of chambers in the same section similar to that of amphisteginids in their early ontogenetic stage and lacks a canal system. In comparing ''Sanctus sinaicus'' with related amphistegenid species, such as ''Penoperculoides cubaensis'' Cole and Gravell 1952 from the Caribbean; ''Penoperculoides rozlozsniki'' (Méhes) ( ex: ''Nummulites rozlozsniki'' Méhes) from Hungary; and “Non ''Nummulites rozlozsniki''” described by Sander 1962, from the Dammam Formation of Saudi Arabia, we find that ''Sanctus sinaicus'' is similar to ''P. cubaensis'' in the type of coiling and the character of the umbo, which lacks alar prolongations, a canal system and transverse trabeculae, and differs from species of ''Nummulites'' in the central subdivision of chambers. | ||
