OCCURRENCE. — Upper Triassic, Rhaetian of Queen Charlotte Islands, British Columbia, Canada; El Castillo Mélange, Nicaragua / Costa Rica Border; Antalya Nappes, NE of Antalya city and Mersin Mélange, NW of Mersin city, southern Turkey.
DIMENSIONS (based on four specimens, in µm). — Maximum diameter of the cortical shell: 88-110 (holotype: 100, average: 98.5); Length of longest spine: 70-78 (holotype: 70, average: 74.3).
DESCRIPTION
Same as of the genus. Cortical shell disc-shaped, large, wider than the length of four spines.
REMARKS
Same as for the genus. This species differs from another species of Praeudalia Tekin, n. gen., illustrated as Gen. et sp. indet. in Tekin (2002b: 428, pl. 3, fig. 12) by possessing a smaller cortical shell and longer primary spines.
