Taxonomy
Original description: Test free, planispiral, partially evolute, so that earlier coils may be seen on both sides of the biumbilicate test; chambers numerous; sutures may be limbate; wall calcareous, coarsely perforate; apertnuor peripheral, an arch at the base of the aptertural face of the last-formed chamber, with a distinct lip.
Entries in the Catalog of original descriptions: Planomalina
Distinguishing features:
Parent taxon (Planomalinidae): Test planispiral, biumbilicate, periphery carinate, sutures strongly arched; aperture a low equatorial opening.
This taxon: Test planispiral, partly evolute, biumbilicate, about eight to ten chambers in the final whorl, sutures broadly curved, thickened, elevated and nodose, peripheral outline lobulate, peripheral angle carinate; wall calcareous, finely perforate, radial in structure, ornamented by the thickened and nodose sutures and peripheral keel; aperture a basal equatorial arch with bordering lip, the opening extending to either side, where part of previous apertures and the bordering lip may remain exposed as relict apertures as the new chambers are added.
