Lituolidae

Placopsilina sp., copyright Moorea Biocode.


Belongs within: Foraminifera.
Contains: Haplophragmoides.

The Lituolidae are a group of agglutinating foraminifera known from the Carboniferous to the present. The most basic morphology in the family is represented by the subfamily Haplophragmoidinae, in which the test is coiled with a simple interior structure. In members of the subfamily Lituolinae, the test is usually coiled in the earliest stages only, subsequently becoming uncoiled as the foram approaches maturity (Loeblich & Tappan 1964).

Characters (from Loeblich & Tappan 1964): Test free or attached, early stage coiled, later may be uncoiled, irregular or annular; wall agglutinated, with calcareous cement or microgranular calcite, interior simple to labyrinthic, epidermal layer imperforate; aperture single or multiple.
