Description Tests nautiloid, lenticular, discoid, subquadratic, inflated fusiform, elongate fusiform, subrhombic, subcylindrical. Proloculus spherical, small to large, and reniform or rectangular. Juvenaria often present. Endothyroidally or planispirally coiled tests, rarely uncoiled. Chambers globular and not numerous (endothyrids), to quadratic to fusiform and numerous (fusulinids). Septa planar to moderately folded to strongly folded. Endoskeleton always developed (crusts, hooks, pseudochomata, chomata). Wall dark microgranular occasionally bilayered to multilayered (globoendothyrids, ozawainelloids) often with a dark-microgranular thin tectum, and a differentiated inner layer (schubertelloids with primatheca; fusulinoids with diaphanotheca; schwagerinoids with keriotheca; neoschwagerinoids with “fine keriotheca”). Aperture terminal simple, basal, rarely cribrate, occasionally reduced to septal pores, cuniculi or foramina.

Taxonomic remark Vachard and Le Coze (2022): "The name Fusulinata, introduced by Maslakova (1990) as a foraminiferal subclass, has apparently priority over Fusulinana Vachard, Pille & Gaillot, 2010, even if the definition and discussion of Fusulinata by Maslakova et al. (1995) were still in a rather embryonic state." [details]
