Original description: Translation from the Russian - Test small, high, consists of three whorls, coiled subglomerately. Test formed by 10-11 chambers, spherical, unevenly increasting in size as added. Last whorl consists of 3-4 chambers of nearly uniform size, tightly appressed. Intercameral sutures nearly straight, weakly depressed. Aperture umbilical, in the form of an elongated slit, slightly visible at the last chamber.
