Diagnosis Test large, elongate, uniserial and rectilinear, chambers elongate, subpyriform, expanding sharply in width just above the basal suture; wall coarsely agglutinated, of quartz and other particles in fine organic material, surface roughly finished; aperture terminal, radiate, reflecting the ribs that line the upper part of the chamber interior in the vicinity of the aperture and project into the opening. Holocene; Antarctic at 2,600 m to 3,950 m; Banda Sea, Indonesia at 2,798 m to 4,391 m. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
