Description

Test free, milioline in development, but with chambers added in more than 5 planes, wall agglutinated, aperture with trematophore, lateral rather than terminal in position. [MUNIER-CHALMAS described this form as having 5 chambers externally, but in his figure of the type,S chambers are visible from one side of the test. None of the types of MUNIER-CHALMAS preserved in collections of the Sorbonne, Paris, France, show a test with only 5 chambers externally. Even in the early stage no quinqueloculine development is seen. Schlumbergerina differs from Ammomassilina in having chambers added in many planes, rather than in a single plane in the adult.]
