Diagnosis Test circular in outline, concavoconvex, trochospiral, about two to two and a half whorls, eight to nine chambers in the final whorl, spiral side flattened to strongly excavated with flush and strongly oblique sutures, convex umbilical side involute to slightly evolute with sutures nearly radial and depressed around the umbilicus, periphery broadly truncate, margin of the spiral side carinate and that of the umbilical side gently rounded; wall calcareous, hyaline, optically radial, surface smooth; aperture an interiomarginal slit extending up the apertural face on the umbilical side, adjacent to and paralleling the peripheral keel, may become areal and fail to reach the base of the apertural face in specimens that become bievolute in the later stage. M. Miocene; USA: California. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
