Diagnosis
Reference | Diagnosis | |
---|---|---|
C. C. Emig and Z. Herrera 2006 | The outline of the shell is an elongate oval. Two large medio-lateral grooves, longitudinally striated, extend from the umbonal region to the anterior margin of the valves; a median groove is narrow. On the outer surface of the dorsal valve is a median groove that occupies its whole length. On the ventral valve, the groove extends from the anterior margin to about the half to two-thirds of the length. Anterior margin straight, without indentation at the level of the grooves. Lateral margins subparallel; width of the shell largest at or above the middle; surface smooth with numerous weak, occasionally well marked, growth lines. Umbonal region rounded on dorsal valve, pointed on ventral valve. Small proparea slightly curved with a weak pedicle groove, continuous with internal valve side. The ventral lophophoral cavity occupies approximately 36% of the length of the valve. Mantle canals curved. A pair of narrow subparallel, V-shaped, grooves extend from the anterior adductor scars to the unpaired posterior adductor scars; three long oblique internal muscles; a V-shaped perimial line. No internal observation of dorsal valve. |
