Moravamminacea

Superfamily of single-celled organisms From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Moravamminacea is a superfamily of foraminifera within Fusulinida that comprises genera in which the proloculus (initial chamber) is followed by a coiled or straight second chamber, and in which periods of growth result in partial or incipient septa. Contains three families, Caligellidae, Moravamminidae, and Paratickenellidae, with an overall range from the upper Silurian to the Lower Carboniferous (Mississippian).
