N2 - The cosmopolitan intertidal foraminifer Trochammina inflata (Montagu) is extensively used in both paleoenvironmentalreconstructions and ecological surveys of salt-marsh foraminifera, and therefore it needs correct identification. Images publishedover years depict differences in test shape, umbilicus features, incurvation of sutures, and number of chambers in the last whorl.For instance, Montagu (1808) described a 5-chambered specimen; revised description of Williamson (1858) as well as theneotype description (Brönnimann & Whittaker, 1984) reported 6 chambers. Recent White Sea specimens — 7-chambered,otherwise similar — inspired Mayer (1962) to propose a new subspecies ―Trochammina inflata (Montagu) subsp. n.?‖, but thiswork was not finalised. Recently collected White Sea specimens of T. inflata perfectly fit to Mayer‘s description. It raises thequestion whether it is possible to distinguish a new (sub)species based on the number of chambers or we are dealing with alocal morph of T. inflata.
