Diagnosis Test large, subglobular, enrolled, and involute with whorl increasing rapidly in height, periphery broadly rounded, early stage streptospiral, later nearly planispiral but asymmetrical, numerous chambers per whorl, sutures short in the outer whorls, hooked and thick, sutures nearly flush externally; wall calcareous, fibrous, with radial vitreous layer at the exterior of the inner whorls, supplementary deposits weakly developed, also appearing as a vitreous radial layer over the outer surface of the previous whorl; aperture in the early stage basal, simple, slitlike, becoming multiple and cribrate in the final whorl. L. Carboniferous (U. Visean); European and central Asiatic USSR. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
