Original description Diagnosis: A distinct genus of fusulinellid that is rather large, ovate, evenly fusiform, with bluntly rounded to pointed poles, whose symmetrically-formed chomata and gradually widening tunnel lends symmetry to the entire shell. Mature specimens of 5,5 to 7 volutions average 3.4mm in length and 1.6 mm in width, giving a form ratio of 2.1. Proloculus of the holotype is perfectly spherical and it and the paratypes average 106 microns in diameter. Septa are straight, averaging 10, 14, 16, 20, 23 and 22, from the first to the sixth whorl, respectively. Tunnel angle broadens gradually, but does not change much, averaging 33, 35, and 43 degrees in the fourth, fifth, and sixth volution, respectively. Spirotheca is composed of a tectum, an extremely thick diaphanotheca, and in the inner three to four whorls, both inner and outer tectoria. In the final three whorls, however, the tectoria are absent, and the mural pores through the walls are especially noticeable in those whorls, nearly as obvious as the keriotheca of early Triticites.
Occurrence: Late Atokan. New Mexico.
