Diagnosis Flattened lenticular test in a low trochospiral coil, about twelve chambers in the final whorl, all visible on the weakly convex spiral side around a central umbonal knob, sutures depressed, oblique and curved back at the periphery, umbilical side with incised sutures and with umbilical chamber extensions in young individuals resembling the imperforate lip or astral lobe of Rotalia but apparently perforate in Redmondina, in larger specimens the umbilical area is filled with protruding coarse pustules; wall calcareous, thick, of radially fibrous calcite, coarsely perforate; primary aperture an interiomarginal slit, supplemented by the large areal pores of the apertural face. L. Eocene; Saudi Arabia. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
