Fusulinacea
The Fusulinacea is a superfamily in the Fusulinida in which the test is spherical, discoida, or fusiform; commonly coiled, less often uncoiling in the late stage, numerous chambers per whorl; test wall of microgranular calcite (as for the order) in one to four layers. Tunnels or secondary foramina may result from partial resorption and secondary deposition may produce chomata, parachomate, tectoria, and axial fillings. Range: M Devonian (Givetian) - U Permian (Djulfian )

gollark: That might help, I guess.
gollark: Um, to remove everyone from the broken area.
gollark: The anti-laser shielding of my Lunar Exclusion Zone base is powered by... that groundside reactor.
gollark: As well as probably breaking the lunar facility, among other things, but eh.
gollark: The reactor powering it should be able to handle that load fine, but the shield seems to also be inside its plasma containment, which SHOULD break it.
