This curious little organism, although resembling Trochammina 
in general form and outline, constructs its test of minute 
calcareous spicules of a fusiform shape. The primary whorls of 
the test are usually strongly coloured a deep reddish brown, 
presumably by the sarcode; the last whorl or so of the shell is 
more often white, although in one example (a fully grown 
specimen from Funafuti) is strongly coloured to the periphery. 
The little spicular bodies appear to be somewhat felted together 
in the central part of the test in each segment, but lie more or 
less parallel along the outer borders. 
C. spiculotesta has been found in the Gulf of Suez, the Red 
Sea, the Gulf of Manaar, the Malay Archipelago, and the 
S. Pacific. It is normally adherent, and is found attached to 
Halimeda and Lithothamnion at Funafuti.
