Diagnosis Low trochospiral test that may be attached by a "puffermasse," chambers numerous, interior partially subdivided by infoldings of the umbilical wall that are oriented transverse to the septa, no secondary septa; wall finely agglutinated; primary aperture interiomarginal and extraumbilical, secondary opening at the inner end of an umbilical lobe extending from the main chamber cavity, secondary openings of previous chambers may remain visible around the open umbilicus. Holocene; S. Atlantic, off Brazil; N. Atlantic, off Puerto Rico; Gulf of Mexico, off Venezuela. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
