Original description: Test lobulate, biumbilicate, planispirally coiled, with 6-7 chambers in the last whorl. Chambers spherical, rapidly increasing in size particularly when seen from peripheral view. Umbilici deep and moderately large. Test covered by fine to medium, papillae. Sutures radial, depressed, straight. Aperture equatorial in position, a lowly arched opeing at the base fo the last chamber. Relict apertures and relict apertural flaps well developed. Outer wall radial hyaline perforate; septal wall and relict apertural flaps microgranular hyaline.
