Diagnosis Test elongate and flattened with longitudinal central depression, tapering at the base, uniserial equitant chambers increasing rapidly in breadth in the early stage, then very slowly so that lateral margins are nearly parallel, sutures chevron shaped, early ones flush, later weakly depressed, periphery rounded; wall calcareous, with dark thin inner organic layer and outer hyaline layer of optically radial calcite, secondarily nonlamellar (atelomonolamellar) or partially lamellar (plesiomonolamellar); aperture terminal, radiate, slightly produced. L. Permian (Sakmarian); Western Australia. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
