Diagnosis Test elongate, robust, with elongate triserial stage and oblique sutures, final one to two chambers cuneate to nearly uniserial; wall calcareous, coarsely perforate, numerous low longitudinal costae on the main part of each chamber stopping abruptly as a blunt spine at the widest part of the chamber a short distance above the preceding suture, giving the chambers an overhanging appearance; aperture terminal, rounded, on a short neck. M. Oligocene (Rupelian) to M. Miocene (Tortonian); New Zealand; Trinidad; USA: California; W. Atlantic: off North Carolina.
