Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| A. R. Loeblich and H. Tappan 1986 | n. Test trochospiral, planoconvex; aperture interiomarginal and
umbilical, not covered as chambers are added, but closed by a secondarily formed plate, those of the final whorl remaining visible around the umbilicus, umbilical side also with numerous radial striae. Eocene to Holocene. s. Differs from the Glabratellidae in having earlier apertures covered by a secondarily formed plate, those of the final whorl forming a stellate pattern around the umbilicus. |
