Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
A. R. Loeblich and H. Tappan 1988Test highly trochospiral; chamber form variable, mostly polygonal in outline; single-keeled throughout; keel present on all chambers (except the earliest ones), distally dichotomic with dorsoseptal and ventro-septal as well as periumbilical extensions; spine-shaped extensions of the chambers present in some forms; cameral aperture umbilical, single; labial aperture pointing strongly backwards, in reflexed position opening into the umbilical cavity or suprasuturally towards the periphery; lips much longer on the distal side than on the proximal one, extremely highly arched, much narrower at the junction with the corresponding chamber and trumpet-shaped, overriding each other or fusing the strongly recurving distal ends and forming an umbilical cover-plate covering entirely the umbilical cavity with labial apertures opening towards the periphery; umbilicus large, partly or entirely covered by the apertural lips.
