Diagnosis Test ovate in outline, biconvex but asymmetrical, chambers one-half coil in length, at first added about 120¡ apart but the angle gradually increasing so that the chamber arrangement shows a sigmoid curve as seen in section, chambers with broad lateral extensions that overlap the earlier part of the test, resulting in a much thickened wall in the central area and a biloculine appearance from the exterior; wall calcareous, thick, imperforate, porcelaneous; aperture terminal, rounded, with a small tooth. Eocene?, L. Miocene (Burdigalian) to Holocene; cosmopolitan. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
