Diagnosis Test trochospiral, lenticular, biumbonate, spiral side evolute, whorls enlarging gradually, sutures thickened, oblique, and curved, umbilical side involute, sutures radial, sinuate, and depressed, periphery carinate; wall calcareous, optically granular, finely perforate, surface smooth; aperture areal, at an acute angle to the base of the chamber face which is deeply infolded in a murus reflectus that attaches to the preceding whorl at the edge nearest the spiral side, the deep indentation appearing falsely to be an interiomarginal aperture. L. Cretaceous to Holocene; cosmopolitan. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
