Diagnosis Test triserial, rounded in section, rapidly enlarging globular to ovate chambers that do not strongly overlap earlier ones as in Praeglobobulimina, sutures depressed; wall calcareous, thin, optically radial, finely perforate, with interspersed elongate larger pores, surface smooth; aperture loop shaped, with bordering rim, tooth plate straight and troughlike throughout or may end in a slightly protruding fanlike free part. M. Miocene (Tortonian) to Holocene; cosmopolitan. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
