OCCURRENCE. — Middle Miocene: France. Late Miocene: Morocco (El Hajjaji 1992), Algeria (Moissette 1988), Calabria. Pliocene: northern Italy, Sicily (Pouyet & Moissette 1992). Pleistocene: Sicily, Calabria (Rosso 2005), Rhodes (Moissette & Spjeldnaes 1995), Karpathos (Moissette et al. 2017). Recent: Atlantic (western, but mostly eastern), Arctic, Mediterranean. T. boreale is predominantly a deep-water (Cheetham 1972), cryophilic (max. 13° C) species (60-3500 m in the Atlantic, 50-1300 m in the Mediterranean).
DESCRIPTION
Vinculariiform colony. Slender cylindrical branches. Oval, elongate zooids arranged in alternating series. Frontal smooth and finely striated, with a row of marginal pores. A spiramen is situated proximally to the semicircular aperture, which bears a short tubular peristome. Avicularia (1-3) and ovicell not observed.
REMARKS
T. gracile (Sars) is generally considered as a synonym of T. boreale.
