Diagnosis Test elongate, stout, early stage trochospirally enrolled, with four or more chambers per whorl, then reduced to biserial, increasing very slowly in size so that test has nearly parallel sides, circular in section; wall finely agglutinated and canaliculate, commonly of calcareous particles on a proteinaceous lining; aperture an interiomarginal slit in a slight reentrant of the final chamber face. L. to U. Cretaceous (Valanginian to Maastrichtian) to Paleocene; North America; Europe. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
