'''MILIOLINE COILING''' is in porcelaneous foraminifera: [[bilocular]] coils where all terminal apertures are positioned on one common axis ([[apertural axis]]). The [[axis of coiling]] is normal to the apertural axis and is rotated so that several descrete angles exist between the median planes of consecutive [[chamber]]s: these are 72° (quinqueloculine), 120° (triloculine) or 180° (spiroloculine or biloculine). If the chambers are positioned so that in a section normal to the apertural axis they form an S-shaped curve, their arrangement is called sigmoiline. See also: [[streptospiral]].
