Diagnosis Test large, ovoid, with rapidly enlarging and strongly embracing globular chambers in a compact trochospiral coil, commonly three chambers in the final whorl, umbilicus deep, sutures depressed in the early stage, flush and obscured by the surface cortex in the adult, periphery broadly rounded; wall calcareous, coarsely perforate in the juvenile stage as in Globigerinoides, in the adult covered by a thick, smooth and glossy secondarily deposited cortex that reduces the pore size at the surface, cortex extended at the chamber margins to form a projecting crenulated flange; primary aperture interiomarginal, umbilical in the juvenile, in the adult reduced to a slit in the thickened cortex, with a crenulate bordering lip that is continuous with the intercameral cortex flanges, one or two sutural supplementary apertures present on the spiral side. L. Pliocene to Holocene; tropical to subtropical, cosmopolitan. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
