Diagnosis Test with early whorls in a flat trochospiral coil, later whorls planispiral and biumbilicate, involute to partially evolute, sutures radial, depressed, peripheral outline lobulate, peripheral margin rounded and noncarinate; wall calcareous, moderately coarsely perforate; aperture a low and commonly asymmetrical, interiomarginal, umbilical-equatorial arch, parts of successive apertures may remain as relict supplementary apertures on one side of the test, the other side with accessory apertures opening into the posterior part of the chamber and bordered by a lip that is a continuation from that of the primary aperture. L. Cretaceous (U. Albian) to U. Cretaceous (L. Cenomanian); Europe; N. Africa. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
