Original description: Test flabelliform, slightly compressed; Eight chambers in biserial portion; twenty-two chambers in multiserial portion. Chambers globular to pyriform. Sutures distinct, depressed. Fine, discontinuous segments of longitudinal costae cover majority of test, rearranging into a vermicular pattern on early chambers. Arched, basal apertures on front and back of all but outermost chambers in multiserial portion; outermost chambers usually with apertures on front only, facing inward.

Emended description:

Morphology:

Biserial chambers rapidly expanding in size; followed by up to 5 multiserial sets; surface covered with fine vermicular ornamentation; last set of chamberlets usually covered with fine, discontinuous costae.
