Triloculina
''Triloculina'' is a protistan genus in the foraminiferal order Miliolida, included in the Quinqueloculininae. The test is three, chambers each a half coil in length. Early chambers, at least in the microspheric generation, in quinqueloculinan arrangement, later becoming triloculine with successive chambers added in planes 120 degrees apart. Only the final three chambers are visible externally. The aperture is terminal, at the end of the final chamber, with a bifid tooth in adult forms. As with the entire order, the test is composed of imperforate, porcelaneous calcite. The Pliocene to Recent ''Cruciloculina'' is very similar, except for having a different aperture, and is a likely derivative. ==References==
