Description Description: Test fusiform to stumpy fusiform with heavy to very heavy axial filling. Proloculus rather large, spherical to reniform. Septa intensively folded, except in the central part of the chambers. The height of these chambers increases moderately and gradually. No chomata, no phrenothecae.
Occurrence: Early-Middle Permian of Darvaz, Pamirs (Bensh, 1987), South China (Sheng, 1963; Zhou, 1998); Japan (Ueno, 1992b); Malaysia (Fontaine et al., 1999); Oman (Vachard et al., 2001a); North Pakistan (Leven et al., 2007; Leven, 2010a); and Austria (Davydov et al., 2013).
