Diagnosis Test lenticular, outline stellate, juvenarium of planispirally coiled chambers with basal aperture and not differentiated into radii and interradii, beginning in the neanic stage seven to ten short flat radii are formed by two alternating systems of vertical plates and by lateral chambers, vertical plates crossed by regularly spaced annular walls pierced by radial stolons, radii subcircular in section nearest the center of the test and laterally compressed toward the periphery, equatorial pseudorbitoidal structure only in the radii, the interradii being filled by regular tiers of lateral chambers that also cover the juvenarium, pillars present. U. Cretaceous (U. Campanian or L. Maastrichtian); Cuba; British Honduras. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
