Diagnosis Test discoidal, microspheric generation with initial peneropline coil, later chambers reniform and finally annular, megalospheric test with globular protoconch and surrounding subcylindrical deuteroconch followed by the annular chambers, marginal zone of chambers subdivided by vertical beams, pillars in central zone aligned from chamber to chamber, and may fuse with adjacent pillars at the septa to result in a vermiform appearance; aperture cribrate, the pores in radial rows. L. Jurassic (Lias); Tibet. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
