Description Description: Shell long, cylindrical, tubular, rectilinear or slightly tapering, and undivided. Proloculus spherical more or less prominent, commonly broken. Aperture simple, terminal, as wide as the tubular chamber. Wall dark microgranular, more or less differentiated.
Occurrence: Silurian (Pronina, 1968; Sabirov , 1987a)– Cretaceous (Arnaud-Vanneau, 1980; Altıner & Decrouez, 1982; Altıner, 1991), cosmopolitan (Gaillot & Vachard, 2007; Vachard, 2016b).
