Description Advanced loeblichioids with marked quasiendothyroid trends: numerous chambers, absence of sutures, evolute whorls and pseudochomata. Various types of wall, from microgranular to granular.
Occurrence. Early Visean–late Serpukhovian; Palaeotethyan and Uralian Province; rarely cosmopolitan; or, inversely, limited to North America.
