Diagnosis Solitary, turbinate or variably conical, fixed or free. Often circular in outline in juvenile stages, becoming compressed in later ontogenetical stages. Costosepta laminar, compact. Septal margins smooth or nearly smooth. Pali not distinct from columellar laths. Columella formed by twisted trabecular segments. Endothecal dissepiments few in number. Wall septothecal, septoparathecal when not properly thickened. [details]From other sources
