Diagnosis Test free, elongate, globular proloculus followed by tapering early stage, with slightly inflated, biserially arranged chambers, later uniserial and rectilinear, circular in section; wall thick, microgranular, dark in transmitted light, with incomplete inner fibrous layer lining the lateral walls and may have an irregular agglutinated external coating; aperture a low interiomarginal lunate slit in the early stage, later areal, terminal, and symmetrical, with two parallel oval to slitlike openings separated by a narrow partition. L. Carboniferous (Visean) to U. Carboniferous (Pennsylvanian); USA; USSR; Britain. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
