Abstract

The new species Bulbobaculites attashensis sp. nov. is described from the rhythmite limestone and marl sediments of the D7 Attash Member of the Middle Jurassic (lower Callovian) Dhruma Formation in Central Saudi Arabia. This species is characterized by its coarsely agglutinated wall, streptospiral initial coiling, and a distinct bulbous initial coil. The occurrence of this species in limestone-marl rhythmite deposits suggests its adaptation to fluctuating environmental conditions, including changes in water depth, salinity, and nutrient flux, associated with rhythmic sedimentation.
