Diagnosis Test trochospirally coiled in the early stage, later uncoiling and flattened, sutures gently curved, periphery carinate; wall calcareous, hyaline, optically granular, coarsely perforate, sutures elevated, with cross ridges connecting the sutural ridges and producing a coarsely reticulate surface; aperture in the early stage an irregular oval near the periphery on the umbilical side, becoming elongate and terminal in the adult with a small tooth on the umbilical margin of the opening, a solid columnar toothplate extending from the inner margin of the aperture through the chamber lumen to connect with the preceding foramen. Paleocene (Danian) to M. Eocene (Lutetian); USA: Texas, Alabama, New Jersey, California; Guatemala; Cuba; Haiti; Sweden; Pakistan.
