Diagnosis Test rounded to ovate in outline, broadly rounded periphery, early stage with two chambers per whorl in a triloculine arrangement, later tending to become planispiral, with three chambers per whorl; wall calcareous, imperforate, porcelaneous, surface may have fine longitudinal striae and may show transverse growth wrinkles; aperture a large arched opening with a bifid tooth in the early stage, later more complex, a keyhole-shaped opening bridged by the rays of the bifid tooth that then curve to rejoin in a circle, connecting also to an arched bladelike plate that extends inward and attaches to the chamber interior. Holocene; Pacific. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
