Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
A. V. Mazaev 2006Shell trochiform. Subsutural ramp separated from the lateral surface by a distinct keel shoulder with narrow selenizone. Lateral surface subvertical and separated from the basal surface by well pronounced angulation. Suture located in the lower part of the lateral surface. Ornamentation consists of spiral ribs. On the early whorls, selenizone bordered by two spiral ribs. Shoulder keel marked by lower rib. Selenizone concave. On late whorls, upper part of selenizone remains on subsutural ramp and lower part of selenizone moves to lateral surface. Selenizone becomes convex. Spiral ribs bordering selenizone hold their thickness or become thinner. Selenizone smooth or covered by marked, sometimes cord-like lunulae.
