ReferenceDiagnosis
A. R. Loeblich and H. Tappan 1988Test flatly trochospiral; chambers globular, slightly to strongly flattened on the dorsal side; keel dorsal, not necessarily peripheral (sub-peripheral keel) at the margin of the flattened part of the chamber-wall with r dorso-septal branches and never dichotomic; keels granular to subspinose; cameral aperture umbilical, extending slightly into a partly interiomarginal position; labial apertures interiomarginal-umbilical-sutural (latter part often reduced through partial fusion of the lips); lips very slightly, if at all arched lengthwise, covering partly the umbilical cavity.
