Abstract:	Despite species variations , the process of folliculinid lorica formation is fundamentally similar (Penard, 1919; Andrews, 1923; Faure-Fremiet, 1932; Dewey, 1939; and Das, 1947). In all a motile, nonfeeding stage becomes attached, secretes a sac and neck, and gradually metamorphoses into a sessile feeding stage characterized by peristomal lobes.
