Diagnosis Test elongate, lanceolate, compressed, periphery acute to carinate, biserial throughout, chambers broad and low, sutures oblique; wall calcareous, hyaline, optically radial, finely perforate, may be basally apiculate, surface smooth or may have low and narrow imperforate longitudinal costae, most prominently on the early half of the test; aperture a basal loop that extends up the apertural face, with bordering lip and internal tooth plate, triangular attached part of the toothplate extending within to the previous foramen and denticulate, narrow and elongate free part projecting through the apertural opening. U. Cretaceous (Campanian) to Holocene; cosmopolitan. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]Diagnosis Test elongate, ovoid to triangular in outline, somewhat compressed, chambers broad and low, biserial throughout, rarely the final chamber may be nearly central in position, infolding of the perforate outer wall along the basal margin of the chambers commonly results in proximally directed digitate overlaps of the preceding chamber but without imperforate septula like those of Afrobolivina, septa flush to slightly depressed, obscured by the surface ornamentation; wall calcareous, hyaline, optically radial, perforate, surface ornamented with irregularly anastomosing imperforate costae, or costae may have an occasional pore; aperture a narrow loop at the base of the apertural face, bordered by a thickened and imperforate rim on one margin, the other margin continuing within as an internal folded toothplate with narrow attached part extending to the previous foramen and broad and short free part projecting through the opening as a long tooth, the two parts changing orientation in successive chambers. U. Cretaceous (Maastrichtian) to Holocene; cosmopolitan. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
