Diagnosis Thin-walled bilocular or multilocular embryonal stage surrounded by a thickened wall, adauxiliary chambers present, may have limited number of spirally arranged chambers but these do not completely surround the embryonal stage, later with cyclical series of arcuate to hexagonal equatorial chambers and numerous lateral chambers well differentiated from the equatorial layer. M. Eocene to L. Miocene (Aquitanian). (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
