Diagnosis Test discoidal, large bilocular megalospheric nucleoconch from 1 mm to 3 mm in diameter, small spherical to cuboidal protoconch nearly or completely surrounded by larger deuteroconch, the two touching tangentially at the latter's roof and floor, both surrounded by a thick wall pierced by numerous stolons that lead to the equatorial auxiliary chambers and originate new spirals of equatorial chambers, stolons from the protoconch also connect with early lateral auxiliary chambers; microspheric test with very tiny protoconch and deuteroconch followed by four to six chambers with proximal stolons only, then by chambers with two stolons, each giving rise to two spirals, large spatulate equatorial chambers may appear hexagonal, lateral chambers low and irregular, rounded to polygonal, those of successive layers alternating and may occur in groups around imperforate pillars; wall calcareous, that of the median layer with multiple grooves and ridges associated with the stolons; cyclic stolons connect equatorial chambers of the same annulae, and two sets of stolons that cross connect to adjacent chambers of adjacent cycles, perforations in the floor and roof of equatorial chambers connect with adjoining lateral chambers that also have perforate roofs and floors and side walls with stolons.
