The crosswise oblique pattern followed by the stolon axes in T. daviesi differs from the radial pattern showed in the type species of the genus Taberina, T. cubanaKeijzer, 1945. Moreover, differences in the embryonic architecture and the type of growth and final test shape between these species support a change in the generic taxonomic attribution. Thus, a new genus, Azzarolina, is proposed for the former species. Azzarolina daviesi is a common biostratigraphic marker for the Paleocene with a broad distribution in the Arabian Peninsula and surrounding areas.
