Diagnosis Test low trochospiral and biconvex, all chambers of the two whorls visible from the spiral side, only the nine or ten of the final whorl visible on the umbilicate opposite side where supplementary chamberlets formed by a transverse internal partition result in a stellate appearance, sutures deeply incised, bridged by shell material between the multiple sutural openings, periphery rounded, peripheral outline lobulate; wall calcareous, thin, coarsely perforate; primary aperture a low interiomarginal arch extending from the peripheral margin to the umbilicus, small secondary areal opening at the suture between primary and supplementary chambers in the apertural face, and multiple sutural openings present on both sides of the test. Holocene; Pacific Ocean; Indian Ocean; Mediterranean Sea; Red Sea. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
