Diagnosis Test conical to bell shaped, with flat to slightly concave base, early trochoid stage relatively large, adult with uniserial chambers separated by strongly undulating septa, the undulations of successive layers alternating in position to result in apparent triangular chamberlets as viewed in transverse section, intersection of the undulating septum giving the appearance in section of radial septula; wall of imperforate microgranular calcite; apertural pores at the margins of the undulations, the earlier foramina allowing oblique communication between adjacent chambers of the preceding and succeeding layers. L. Cretaceous (Valanginian to Barremian); Italy; Algeria. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
