Diagnosis Test globular, lenticular or discoidal, commonly large, up to about 12 cm in diameter, dimorphism pronounced in larger species, planispirally enrolled, commonly involute but may be evolute in the later stage, proloculus and deuteroconch separated by an imperforate common wall with a single central round pore and with a row of pores at the base of the septum, outer wall of the embryonal chambers perforate, later chambers simple and undivided, many per whorl, septa curved back at the periphery and may be sigmoidal, supplementary stolons in the unfolded septa, distinct marginal cord on the periphery, marginal canal with a network of elongate meshes, sutural canals ramified, directed obliquely backward and foreward on both sides of the septa, the oblique paths of the sutural canals and the branches in the lateral walls visible on the lateral wall surface where the offset pores leave narrow unperforated bands as transverse trabeculae, dissolution may modify the trabecular canals into radial passages that directly connect the canal systems of superposed whorls of involute tests, supplementary lateral passages result from gaps in the septa between adjacent alar prolongations of the involute chambers, pillars may be interspersed between septal filaments and appear at the surface as pustules; aperture in all post prolocular chambers consists of a row of pores at the base of the face. Paleocene to Holocene; tropical and subtropical cosmopolitan. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
Grammatical gender Opinion 192 of the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (1945) fixed that the gender of Nummulites is masculine. [details]
