Diagnosis Test subtriangular in outline, compressed, biserial throughout, sutures moderately inflated but not globular, terminal face appearing truncate because of the elevated and beaded sutures; wall calcareous, surface with low and discontinuous ribs and distinctly perforate between the raised and strongly beaded sutures; aperture an arch at the base of the final chamber. U. Cretaceous (Coniacian to Santonian); cosmopolitan. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
