F. R. C. Reed 1917 | Shell longitudinally oval to subquadrate, either longer than wide or about as wide as long ; cardinal angles and sides rounded; anteriorly more or less produced into rounded tongue and marginally sinuated ; unequally biconvex ; hinge-line curved. Pedicle-valve less convex than brachial valve, but with more prominent higher imperforate (?) beak rising above hinge-line, incurved, with triangular hinge-area and small triangular open delthyrium below it; surface of pedicle-valve with broad shallow flat-bottomed sinus increasing in width anteriorly, and having steeply sloping sides and angulated edges towards front margin ; floor of sinus occupied by 6-7 equal regular ribs; sides of sinus with usually one similar rib in posterior half but smooth anteriorly; lateral portions of valve convex, covered with 12-16 somewhat smaller and closer straight ribs; interior of valve with short median septum in umbonal region. Brachial valve more convex than opposite valve, with weak rounded median fold on surface increasing in height and width anteriorly; beak much smaller and lower than that of pedicle-valve, obtuse, incurved; surface of fold bearing 5-7 ribs, and lateral lobes bearing 12-16 similar or slightly smaller ribs. |
