Emended description:

Georgescu & Huber, 2008, p.57:"Test planispirally coiled, biumbilicate, with 4.5 to 6.0 globular to subglobular chambers in the final whorl; chambers increase slowly in size as added. Sutures are straight, depressed and radial. Periphery broadly rounded, without peripheral structures. Primary aperture is a low arch, equatorial in position, extending into the umbilical areas. Relict apertures may be present in the umbilicus. Scattered pustules are present on all the chambers of the test. Test wall calcitic, hyaline, microperforate to finely perforate; pore diameters are in the range of 0.8 to 1.3 microns." [copied from Chronos database]
