Diagnosis Test large, up to 1.2 mm in diameter, ovate and lobulate in outline, laterally compressed, robust, periphery broadly rounded, biumbilicate, early stage with chambers one-half coil in length in quinqueloculine arrangement, later chambers elongate and subangular with carinate lower border, planispirally enrolled and two to five chambers per whorl; wall calcareous, imperforate, thick, the thick wall masking the early quinqueloculine chamber arrangement; aperture at the end of the final chamber, small, elliptical to reniform, with a short bifid tooth. Miocene (Burdigalian); Gabon. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
