Description
Test compressed, planispirally enrolled at least in early stages, later may be uncoiled and flaring, external form variable, chambers broad, low, not subdivided, wall porcelaneous, surface smooth, pitted, or more commonly, longitudinally striate, aperture terminal, row of slits in slight depression along the apertural face. [Puteolus (=Puteolina) was based on a species with pitted rather than striate surface ornamentation. We do not regard ornamentation as of generic importance.]
