Description Original description. “Test free, discoidal to lenticular; proloculus followed by enrolled, undivided and planispirally coiled tubular chamber; wall calcareous, formed of an inner dark microgranular layer that tends to stay unmodified even in the advanced taxa, and a clear, radially built hyaline layer; aperture simple, at open end of tube” (Altıner, 1988, p. 28).
Emended description. Test small to medium sized, discoidal, inflated or partially inflated, biconvex, or biconcave, bilocular, planispirally coiled, entirely evolute, involute or involute to evolute. Proloculus spherical followed by a second, tubular, undivided chamber. Wall is yellowish, pseudofibrous, bilayered (with a thin, dark, microganular, inner layer, and an outer, thicker, yellowish, pseudofibrous layer) or pseudofibrous, unilayered. Aperture is terminal, simple, at the end of the tubular chamber.
(Vachard et al. (2017), p. 280).
Occurrence: ?Late Moscovian. Pennsylvanian–Permian; the genera of this family are generally Tethyan, Uralian and Panthalassan, rarely cosmopolitan.
(Vachard in Krainer et al. (2019), p. 41). [details]
