Taxonomy

Citation: Laeviheterohelix Nederbragt, 1991
taxonomic rank: Genus

Original description: Diagnosis: Test calcareous, biserial throughout or with an initial planispiral coil; wall microperforate and smooth with scattered pustules, or with pores situated in the center of a pore mound. Aperture a simple arc, bordered by distinct flanges.

Entries in the Catalog of original descriptions: Laeviheterohelix

Distinguishing features:
Parent taxon (Heterohelicidae): Aperture symmetrical, ranging from a low slit to a high arch at the base of the final chamber, becoming terminal in uniserial taxa.
This taxon: Biserial throughout, aperture symmetrically positioned, wall smooth, microperforate with irregularly scattered pustule or pore mounds
