Diagnosis Test free, megalospheric embryonal apparatus of protoconch and deuteroconch, followed by a trochospiral stage of numerous chambers per whorl, and finally uncoiled and rectilinear, with rectilinear growth in a direction perpendicular to the trochospiral axis; early stage unknown for the large flattened and fanlike microspheric test; septa extending only a short distance into the rectilinear part of the test to form the undivided marginal zone, central part of the test covered by successive apertural plates, interior of chambers beneath the apertural plates with endoskeletal radial pillars that anastomose toward the center of the test and are progressively thickened to form a compact columella that may be traversed by fine canals; a row of circular foramina lies at the contact of the previous apertural plate and the succeeding septum, but these do not open to the exterior; wall of imperforate microgranular calcite; aperture multiple, numerous pores covering the surface of the apertural plate over the central zone of the test. M. Jurassic; Italy; Yugoslavia; Turkey. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]

Diagnosis Test free, megalospheric embryonal apparatus of protoconch and deuteroconch, followed by a trochospiral stage of numerous chambers per whorl, and finally uncoiled and rectilinear, with rectilinear growth in a direction perpendicular to the trochospiral axis; early stage unknown for the large flattened and fanlike microspheric test; septa extending only a short distance into the rectilinear part of the test to form the undivided marginal zone, central part of the test covered by successive apertural plates, interior of chambers beneath the apertural plates with endoskeletal radial pillars that anastomose toward the center of the test and are progressively thickened to form a compact columella that may be traversed by fine canals; a row of circular foramina lies at the contact of the previous apertural plate and the succeeding septum, but these do not open to the exterior; wall of imperforate microgranular calcite; aperture multiple, numerous pores covering the surface of the apertural plate over the central zone of the test.
