Diagnosis Test attached, proloculus followed by gradually enlarging undivided tubular second chamber that first coils about the proloculus, then bends back and forth in zigzag bends while coiling as in Meandrospira, although remaining attached, the tubular chamber enlarging more rapidly in the later part and finally spreading widely; wall calcareous, imperforate, porcelaneous, unattached side may be rough in appearance and show little of the test structure, although this is well shown on the formerly attached side of subsequently detached specimens. U. Carboniferous (Stephanian), Virgilian to Permian; USA: Texas; Australia. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
