Diagnosis Test elongate, early stage enrolled in various planes, then planispiral and involute with about three whorls, gradually increasing from two chambers per whorl to five chambers in the final whorl, adult uncoiled and rectilinear, with chambers nearly circular in section, massive endoskeleton of subepidermal septula producing marginal chamberlets and central pillars that fuse laterally to form central chamberlets opening into the preseptal space, residual pillars also present in the preseptal space; wall calcareous, imperforate, porcelaneous; aperture cribrate on a trematophore that may be supported by the residual pillars. U. Cretaceous (Campanian), ?L. Eocene; Guatemala; Spain; Italy; Greece. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
