Diagnosis Test free, elongate, coiled in early stage, probably streptospiral, later uncoiling and rectilinear or less commonly may bifurcate, chamber interior partially divided by exoskeletal vertical partitions or beams projecting inward for a short distance from the outer wall, center of chambers also with a few irregular vertical pillars extending from chamber floor to roof; wall agglutinated, incorporating shell fragments, spicules, small foraminifers, and chalk grains, nonalveolar, but septa may be canaliculate and traversed irregularly by fine randomly oriented canals from 10 µm to 40 µmin diameter; aperture in early stage interiomarginal, areal, and multiple in the rectilinear stage. U. Cretaceous (U. Coniacian or L. Santonian); England. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
