Diagnosis Test free, conical, proloculus followed by undivided tubular chamber coiled in a high spire around an umbilical region that is filled with fibrous microcrystalline calcite, spiral suture depressed, bridged by numerous extensions of shell matter that separate small pits; wall calcareous, dark, microgranular, and may have a second thin fibrous radial layer on the base of the spire; aperture terminal, simple. L. to M. Carboniferous (Visean to Moscovian); England; Belgium; USSR; Iran; USA: Alaska; Canada. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
