Diagnosis Test discoidal to lenticular, with numerous broad and low chambers planispirally enrolled, the operculinoid spire increasing slowly in height, chambers arched toward the apertural face, sutures slightly depressed; wall of finely agglutinated quartz sand, simple in structure and neither canaliculate nor alveolar; aperture cribrate, areal, with pores scattered up the apertural face and reflected in thin section by the multiple passages through the septa. U. Cretaceous (Cenomanian); France. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
