Diagnosis Test discoidal, planispirally enrolled and evolute, biumbilicate, whorls enlarging rapidly so that the test flares somewhat, although chamber lumen maintains a nearly constant height, chambers slightly overlap those of the previous whorl laterally to result in an equitant axial section, chambers numerous, up to fourteen in the final whorl, periphery subacute; wall calcareous, finely granular, translucent, with thick inner yellowish layer and thin dark outer layer; aperture a low arcuate basal and equatorial slit. U. Devonian (U. Frasnian); USA: Iowa; USSR: Tatar ASSR, Saratov district. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
