Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
J. Jin and L. E. Popov 2008Shell dorsibiconvex, up to 13 mm wide, asymmetrical shell with sigmoidal anterior commissure; ventral sulcus anddorsal fold originating at midlength of mature shells; up to 14 rounded costae in anterior half of shell; discrete, parallel inner hinge plates. Rudimentary strophic shell with a small ventral interarea in this species can be inferred from the transverse serial sections and emended diagnosis of Parastrophinella provided by Rozman (1970a).
