Description. "Test smooth, dentaline, attenuated, and grace- 

 ful ; chambers nine or ten, shorter and less distinct at the proximal 

 end, but becoming more definite above and more elongated ; septa 

 distinct, straight, or nearly so, becoming more marked in the 

 proximal extremity; ultimate chamber somewhat prolonged into 

 a neck which carries the oral aperture; proximal end very neatly 

 rounded. 



"Length, 2 mm." (Bagg.) 



Remarks. "This slender little species is very closely allied to 

 the emaciate variety found in the Hornerstown marl beds, but 

 it is not so elongated and has a much smaller number of 

 chambers." (Bagg.) 



Formation and locality. Marshalltown clay marl, Marshall- 

 town (Bagg). 



Geographic distribution. New Jersey; Miocene of California.
