Original Description

Translation from the Russian. - Spire of the test quite high, consisting of two to two and a half whorls with five chambers in each. Chambers gradually inflated, slowly increasing in size. Spiral side lowly conical, umbilical side slightly concave in the center, with a slit-shaped prolongation along the marginal suture. Wall smooth, finely perforate. Surface lustrous. 

Size:
Greatest diameter 0.38, least diame ter 0.29, height 0.30 mm.

Extra details from original publication
Variability. - The height of the spire and the number of chambers in the last whorl (4.5-5) vary over small limits.
Comparison. - This species differs from Globigerina (Eoglobigerina) tetragona Morozova by the greater number of chambers in the last whorl and the relatively lower spire, from G. (Eoglobigerina) edita Subbotina and G. (Eoglobigerina) theodosica Morozova by the conical form of the spiral side and by the greater height of the test.
