Acervulinoidea
Acervulinoidea or Acervulinacea is a superfamily in the Foraminifera order Rotaliida. The Acervulinoidea may be free, or able to move about, or their tests may be attached to some substrate. The early growth stage is spiral, followed by irregular chambers that form an irregular mass, disc, or branching structure. The test wall is of hyaline (glassy) optically radial calcite and is coarsely perforate. Apertures are present only as mural pores.
