Diagnosis Moderate in size, up to 8 mm in length, inflated fusiform, sharp to bluntly pointed poles, proloculus spherical, first whorl short and inflated, later whorls expanding slowly and regularly and test becoming elongate and fusiform, septa closely spaced, irregularly fluted throughout; wall very thin and appearing structureless in earliest whorls, later whorls with tectum and thin alveolar keriotheca, tunnel narrow and high, straight to slightly varied in direction, chomata asymmetrical, high, and broad, extending along the chamber floor to the poles as axial fillings in the inner volutions, and only part of this distance in outer whorls, nearly completely filling the chambers near the tunnel; numerous septal pores. U. Carboniferous (Stephanian), L. Missourian; USA: Iowa. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
