Diagnosis Test a high trochospiral, chambers numerous, strongly inclined with respect to the axis of coiling, the microspheric generation becoming very high and almost rectilinear, megalospheric generation shorter and more conical in form, apertural face consists of a septal expansion covering the umbilical region, umbilical part of the chamber interior filled with numerous pillars that are continuous from chamber to chamber and form a columellar endoskeleton in the axis of coiling, axis of the juvenile whorls filled with secondary deposits, resulting in a massive central area but lacking a subcameral tunnel; wall calcareous, microgranular in structure; aperture consisting of many pores in the apertural face. L. Jurassic (M. Lias); Morocco. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
