Diagnosis Test ovoid, biconvex, umbilicate, periphery rounded, low trochospiral coil of about two rapidly expanding whorls, sutures gently curved on the spiral side, nearly radial around the open umbilicus on the umbilical side, the lower chamber margin with a distinct notch at each end of a thin-walled bulging triangular area at the base of the apertural face, the notch nearest the periphery lying at the last contact of the final chamber with the preceding whorl, the umbilical notch marks the position of attachment of an internal partition to the internal wall of the apertural face but not to the dorsal chamber wall, an accessory internal partition attached to the surface of the previous whorl extends obliquely downward and inward from the upper end of the aperture; wall calcareous, aragonitic, thin, with an organic base; aperture a narrow interiomarginal, umbilical slit at the base of the apertural face on the umbilical side, between the two notches at the ends of the bulging triangular area, a secondarily formed areal intercameral foramen lies in the preceding septum just above the upper end of the triangular area. M. Eocene to L. Miocene; cosmopolitan. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
