Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
Cole 1928Test relatively large for the genus, rotaliform, dorsal side very flat, ventral side strongly convex, periphery angulate,
chambers few, inflated, about four in the last formed coil, rapidly increasing in size so that the last makes up over one-fourth of the test; sutures distinct, depressed; wall very finely granular; aperture rather large, extending from the periphery to the umbilicus.
