Diagnosis Test small, up to 3 mm in diameter, lenticular, periphery acutely angled, umbilical region rounded to slightly depressed, short axis of coiling with nine to ten whorls in the adult, septa plane, unfluted; wall thin, strongly mineralized but appears to have originally had a tectum, thicker finely alveolar keriotheca, and thin, dense lower layer; chomata well developed in all whorls, poorly developed and discontinuous parachomata present in the outer four or five whorls, slitlike tunnel present in all whorls, foramina few, circular, present only in outermost whorls. M. Permian (Kungurian), (Guadalupian); S. China. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
