Named by Hori, Whalen & Dumitrica.

Original description: Test conical, dicyrtid. Cephalis small, with polygonal pore frames. Apical and ventral horns long, cylindrical and fused at the base; horns disposed in a V shape. Thorax conical with hexagonal pore frames arranged in staggered horizontal rows and, in some specimens, with a circumferential ridge at middle part. Distal opening of thorax triangular, surrounded by a wide imperforate rim. Feet straight, divergent, triradiate, pointed distally. Two outer blades of each foot interconnected with the corresponding blade of neighbouring feet at the base of the perforate part of the thorax.

Original remarks: This species is rare but morphologically distinctive. It differs from typical Napora in having both apical and ventral horns circular in cross-section. Moreover, the tribladed feet display two outer blades with a wide groove in between.

Etymology: From the two cephalic horns that outline the V letter; noun.
