Description Description: Test attached, flattened, characterized by a small to moderate size, relatively thin wall, and a plano-convex development with a few whorls. Proloculus globular followed by an undivided deuteroloculus, displaying a zig zag growth with some terminal desviations. Wall porcelaneous. Aperture simple, at the extremity of the deuteroloculus. Remarks: Planiinvoluta differs from Calcivertella by its architecture; it differs from Palaeonubecularia by a more regular coiling and thinner wall.
Range and distribution: Late Pennsylvanian of Texas (Cushman & Waters 1928a; Cushman & Waters 1930; Meagher 2012). Moscovian of the southern Urals (Malakhova 1980). Early Permian of the Carnic Alps (Vachard & Krainer 2011b) and Iran (Fassihi et al. 2020). Permian- Triassic of Australia (Crespin 1958; Foster et al. 1985; Apthorpe 2003). Permian of North China (Zheng 1991). Rhaetian of Austria (Leischner 1961). Middle Triassic of Pakistan; Anisian of Germany; Ladinian (?) and Carnian of Transdanubian Range, Hungary (Oravecz-Scheffer 1987); Ladinian and/or Norian of Bulgaria (Trifonova 1993); Norian and Rhaetian of Carpathians (Salaj et al 1983); Norian and Rhaetian of Exmouth Plateau, Australia; Rhaetian of Seram, Indonesia; Rhaetian of Papua New Guinea; Norian, Rhaetian and Lower Jurassic of Northern Calcareous Alps, Austria (Gale 2012, with references therein). Triassic-Dogger (Wernli 1971; Zaninetti 1976; Septfontaine 1977; Rettori 1995; Böhm et al. 1999). Discovered in the Changhsingian of the northwestern Dolomites (South Tyrol, Italy: this study).

Diagnosis Test flattened, probably originally attached, discoidal to centrally inflated on the unattached side, globular proloculus followed by nonseptate planispirally enrolled second chamber, coiling evolute against the attachment, involute above; wall calcareous, probably imperforate; aperture at the open end of the tube.
