Diagnosis Test planispiral and involute with rounded noncarinate periphery, about eight to eleven slightly inflated chambers in the final whorl, retral processes few, ponticuli present, sutures nearly radial, slightly depressed, umbilicus with boss, umbilical spiral canal system formed by sealed off umbilical parts of the chambers that are interconnected by the umbilicalmost foramina, may have a few vertical canals; wall calcareous, perforate but apertural face smooth and largely or entirely imperforate, wall of earlier chambers thickened by later lamination, optically radial, bilamellar with septal flaps; aperture multiple, interiomarginal, and also may have areal openings. Miocene to Holocene; cosmopolitan. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
