Diagnosis Test a single hemispherical to polygonal inflated chamber, with broad open side that may be the position of attachment, but if so, no chamber floor was present against the substrate; wall agglutinated, of a single layer of grains, no organic layer evident, apparently constructed in a series of bands (possibly growth rings); aperture probably against the attachment (the periphery is generally damaged in the specimens obtained from acid residues), or if a free-living form, which appears unlikely, the entire open side would represent the aperture. U. Silurian (Ludlovian); Austria. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
