Description Tests small, nautiloid, lenticular or discoid strongly quasiendothyroid (i.e., with numerous chambers), often umbilicate or biumbilicate. Strong deviations of axis; rarely planispiral. Sutures faint to absent. Pseudochomata generally present. No case of uncoiling. Wall dark simple, microgranular, stable (Endostaffella Rozovskaya, 1961) to recrystallized (Euxinita Conil & Dîl in Conil, Longerstaey & Ramsbottom, 1980). Aperture terminal, simple.
