Diagnosis Test irregularly planispiral, bi-involute, final whorl with about six gradually enlarging and inflated chambers, umbilici covered by a perforate and pustulose plate that continues along the base of the final chamber to form a small chamberlet over the primary aperture, branches from the umbilical plate form raised bands along the sutures and connect across the test periphery to those from the opposite side, small arched openings along both sides of the sutural bands lead into the sutural canals beneath the bands, similar small openings border the plate that forms the apertural chamberlet; wall calcareous, radial, relatively thick, coarsely perforate; primary aperture interiomarginal and equatorial, covered by the plate of the apertural chamberlet, with accessory openings along the margins of the umbilical, apertural, and sutural coverplates. Holocene (estuarine); Northwest Australia. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]Grammatical gender 30.1.4.4.
