Original description Diagnosis. Test large, subspherical to ovoid and planispiral. Wall is four-layered. Septa slightly folded. Chomata massive, spherical to subquadrate in shape.
Description. Test large in size, entirely planispiral and involute, subspheri- cal to ovoid in shape, or subrhomboidal in some specimens with spherical initial volutions. The coiling of the spiral is moderately tight and followed by some loosely coiled last volution in some adult forms. Wall is thick and four-layered including tectum, diaphanotheca, lower and upper tectorium. Septa regularly and slightly folded across the centre of the test and folded near the polar extremities. Chomata are massive, symmetrical and rounded to subquadrate or short ribbon-like in some specimens.
Occurrence. Gölbelen and Bademli sections of the Hadim Nappe (Bozkır/Konya; Bademli-Akseki/Antalya, Central Taurides, Turkey).
Stratigraphic range. Upper Moscovian.
