Diagnosis Test trochospiral, about three to five rapidly enlarging globular chambers per whorl, sutures radial, deeply incised on the umbilical side and later also on the spiral side, periphery rounded, peripheral outline slightly lobate; wall calcareous, thick, coarsely perforate, surface cancellate in the early stage, secondary deposition in the pits of the honeycomb structure later forming a calcite crust but surface remaining irregular and wall never as thick as the smooth surfaced cortex of Sphaeroidinella and Sphaeroidinellopsis; aperture interiomarginal, umbilical, a broad slit to low arch but without supplementary sutural openings. L. Miocene (Burdigalian) to M. Miocene (Tortonian); temperate to subtropical, western N. and S. Pacific. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
