Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
C. W. Wright et al. 1996Strong tuberculation, at least umbilical and ventrolateral, in most genera; in some, however, ribs dominant, while in others, ornament may be weak or absent on outer whorls. Most genera evolute. Whorl section ranging from compressed to very depressed. Dimorphic in size only, with no apertural modification in microconchs. Suture with few special characteristics or variations, though in some later genera sutural detail tending to simplify as in successor families. Upper Cretaceous (Lower Cenomanian– Coniacian).
