Original Description

Tholonida with double cortical shell (with external veil), with two hemispherical cupolas, opposite on the poles of one axis; central chamber (between them) Larnacilla-shaped, with medullary shell.

The genus Amphitholonium differs from the nearly allied Amphitholus (probably its ancestral form) only in the duplication of the cortical shell; the outer has the same three-jointed form as the inner, and is connected with it by a variable number of radial beams. From the similar Tholodes it differs in the possession of a medullary shell.
