Taxonomy
Original description: Test low trochospiral (according to E & M), biumbilicate, involute to slightly evolute, laterally compressed with a broad imperforate peripheral band, peripheral margin ovate, lobate; 6-7 chambers in the final whorl; chambers in lateral view ovoid, weakly inflated, increasing gradually in size as added; chambers in apertural view initially spherical to subspherical, expanding only slightly in width as added, terminal 2-3 chambers becoming compressed and elongate-ellipsoidal in shape, umbilici wide, shallow; evolute side showing portions of chambers of previous whorls, opporsite side more strongly involute; sutures radial, straight to slightly curved, depressed; early chambers of the last whole; wall rather coarsely perforate except for broad imperforate peripheral band; aperture interomarginal, spiro-umbilical, a broad asymmetrical arch extending onto the umbilical side of the test; primary aperture bordered by a thickened, well-developed lip extending into the umbilici; liplike relict apertural borders of terminal 2-3 chambers preserved in umbilical area.
