To all
 
I don't know if this has already been answered but anyway I have the Winston
Ponders paper at hand
 
>Also where does X. Kondoi Ponder,1983, and Konoi Habe,1953
>fit in?
 
These are separate taxa as according to Winston
 
Xenophora (Xenophora) mekranensis konoi Habe, 1953
 
Xenophora (Xenophora) peroniana kondoi Ponder, 1983
 
Xenophora mekranensis (Newton, 1905) is a pliocene fossil from the Mekran
Coast and Winston considered it morphologically very similar to Habe's
species and he tentatively retained the name and has given it subspecific
status.
 
>I see in the texts the prime mekranensis for konoi without
>an author. Where am I at?
 
Hope this helps
