Catalog entries: Gallitellia, Neogallitellia
Distinguishing features:
Initially biserial may become multiserial, smooth, microperforate wall; aperture simple (no lip or toothplate).
Gallitellia is characterized by its smooth, microperforate wall and its simple aperture that lacks a lip or toothplate. Multiserial chamber-proliferation may occur as a gerontic stage.
