Diagnosis Test flattened lenticular, very low trochospiral, bievolute, chambers enlarging gradually, about eight in the final whorl, sutures curved and slightly depressed on the spiral side, nearly radial and depressed on the umbilical side, inner margin of each chamber and intercameral suture secondarily covered by a rhomboidal plate as the next chamber is added, the rhomboidal plates of the final whorl forming a stellate pattern around the umbilicus, periphery broadly carinate; wall calcareous, finely perforate, surface papillate on spiral side; primary aperture interiomarginal, an arch at the base of the oblique final chamber face, facing the umbilical side and extending nearly to the peripheral keel, after addition of the coverplate and new chamber the intercameral foramen remains as a slightly irregular elongate vertical slit about midway in the septal face. U. Eocene (Priabonian) to Oligocene; USA: Alabama. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
