Description

Test compressed-ovate, globular proloculus followed by nonseptate tubular second chamber in glomospirine coil. later portion with 2 chambers to whorl and development as in Sigmoililla, with plane of coiling gradually changing to form sigmoid curve as seen in transverse section; septa very thin; wall calcareous. imperforate, thin, aperture simple rounded opening at end of final chamber. [Originally placed in the Miliolidae, this genus is here transferred to the Ophthalmidiinae, family Nubeculariidae, because of its nonseptate enrolled second chamber and later milioline development, and the simple apertural opening.]
