Diagnosis Test large, up to 10 or more mm in length, elongate, subcylindrical to fusiform, poles rounded to bluntly pointed, small spherical proloculus followed by about nine slowly and uniformly expanding whorls, septa irregularly fluted throughout the test length; wall thin, of tectum and thin keriotheca, tunnel narrow at first, later moderately wide, bordered in the earlier whorls by broad and asymmetrical chomata that extend a considerable distance toward the poles, chomata more symmetrical in outer whorls, thin and discontinuous axial fillings present in the polar regions. U. Carboniferous (Stephanian), U. Missourian; USA: Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Utah. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
