Description Emended diagnosis: Test discoidal (with parallel flanks) or slightly lenticular (with biconvex flanks). Proloculus spherical, generally small, followed by a tubular, undivided, planispirally coiled, second chamber. Number of whorls: 5.5–8. Lumina typically at the concavus stage, slightly and regularly increasing in height and width, but involutus stage and angulatus stages are also known in this genus. Wall bilayered with a thin inner dark‐microgranular layer and a thicker hyaline‐pseudofibrous outer layer. As for the archaediscoids, the dark inner layer tends to disappear in the angulatus stage; in contrast, it is more broad and ogival in the involutus stage. Aperture areal, simple, large, at the extremity of the tubular chamber. Residual, ancestral, sutural secondary openings with small sutural bridges are present but not functional, giving the omega‐shaped lumina mentioned by Pinard and Mamet (1998) and Groves and Boardman (1999).
Occurrence: Rare in the Gzhelian (Henderson et al., 1995; Groves and Wahlman, 1997). Relatively frequent in latest Gzhelian (= Orenburgian = Bursumian = Newellian) and Cisuralian; then, rare up to the early Wuchiapingian (Lys et al., 1978; Köylüoglu and Altiner, 1989); cosmopolitan.
