Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| L. O'Dogherty et al. 2006 | Test generally composed of three segments. Cephalis
small, hemispherical, partly encased in thorax. Thorax much larger, inflated, not submerged in the abdomen. Abdomen subglobular, distally constricted, usually somewhat larger than thorax. Aperture always present. Lumbar stricture well pronounced. Cephalis generally poreless, all the other segments bear circular pores. In some species, apical and ventral spines of the initial skeleton are prolonged outside the cephalic wall. |
