Description Tests free, consisting of a undivided tubular chamber, helicoidally coiled in a spire high to low conical. Depressed umbilical region empty (Vissariotaxis) or occupied by a hyaline plug, corresponding possibly to anastomosed pseudopillars (Howchinia Cushman, 1927; Monotaxinoides Brazhnikova & Yartseva, 1956; Planohowchinia Cózar & Mamet, 2001). Spiral sutures depressed, without or with small appendices. Aperture terminal simple at the extremity of the tubular chamber; supplementary sutural apertures are present.
Occurrence. Late Visean (MFZ13)–Bashkirian; Palaeotethyan and Uralian; rare in North America and Panthalassa.
