Diagnosis Test free, narrow and elongate, early stage of the microspheric form with a short trochospiral coil that forms a somewhat swollen initial part, later with numerous chambers in an elongate, narrow biserial stage, megalospheric generation lacks the early trochospiral coil but has an exceptionally large proloculus followed by a similar elongate biserial stage with low chambers and straight, depressed, and horizontal sutures; wall finely agglutinated, interior simple, noncanaliculate, surface smoothly finished; aperture a low arch at the base of the final chamber face.
