Diagnosis Test planispirally enrolled, slightly evolute, strongly compressed, interior divided by thin straight organic partitions, not corresponding to the original apertural face and not always reflected at the surface; wall agglutinated, commonly of quartz grains and sponge spicules on a proteinaceous base; aperture a broad low interiomarginal equatorial opening. Holocene; Mediterranean; Atlantic; Caribbean. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
