Original description Diagnosis. Subglobular to lens-shaped shells, slight to moderate dimorphism. The megalospheric generation develops subglobular to ovoid shells, whereas microspheric forms tend to become lens-shaped. Chambers are undivided and streptospirally arranged in early stages of growth in both generations. Adult specimens may fix their axis of coiling, exhibiting planispirally arranged chambers, or keep the juvenile streptospirality. Multiple rounded apertures. The endoskeleton consists of septula and floors, which subdivide the chamber lumen in cortical and medullar chamberlets (Fig. 9). There is no differentiation between
the shape and size of the cortical and medullar chamberlets of the same chamber. Septula and floors are disposed in line in successive chambers. Typical preseptal space of Rhapydioninidae is present.
