Diagnosis Test discoidal, planoconvex, flatter surface may be centrally depressed, early enrolled stage as in Sherbornina, with six to eight chambers forming up to one and a half whorls, followed by annular series of arcuate chambers resulting from strong corrugation of the peripheral margin so that the outer wall of chambers of a single cycle is a continuous sheet of calcite, final one or two annular chambers may be undivided, canal system well developed; wall calcareous, coarsely perforate, radial, thick lamellae added to test surface with each cycle of chambers. L. Miocene; Tasmania. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
