Description Image source: Cushman, J.A. 1913. A Monograph of the Foraminifera of the North Pacific Ocean. Part III. Lagenidae. Bull. U.S. Nation. Mus 71: ix+125 pp.+47 pls.
Note: The species figured by Cushman (1913) probably belongs to Lagenosolenia or Irenita and differs from Seguenza's (Opinion of Le Coze (2019) pers. comm.). Cushman's figure from 1923 is completly different.
