Discorbis is a benthic Foraminfera genus, (Kingdom Protista in paleontological classifications), that made its first appearance during the Eocene. Its present distribution is cosmopolitan.Discorbis produces a smooth plano-convex to unequally biconvex trochospiral test (shell) with a flattened umbilical side, taking up about two and a half whorls, with seven to ten chambers in the final whorl. The test wall is calcareous, thin, optically radial, and finely to coarsely perforate.
