From editor or global species database
Diagnosis Test flattened lenticular, trochospirally enrolled with evolute spiral side and involute umbilical side, chambers crescentic and very broad and low, as seen from the spiral side, but subtriangular with slightly curved and nearly radial sutures on the umbilical side; interior with numerous fine radial beams, with shorter ones intercalated between longer ones that nearly reach the umbilicus but with very few or no cross partitions or rafters, so that the subepidermal skeleton does not form a distinct meshwork over the entire test; wall of finely agglutinated calcareous grains; aperture a low arch at the midpoint of the base of the apertural face on the umbilical side. U. Cretaceous (U. Santonian); France; Spain. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
