Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
J. Kriz 2011Postero-ventrally elongated (H/L = 1.3–1.6), broadly subtriangular Tetinka, with obese shell (L/W = 1–1.5), longest in the upper half of the shell height. Enantiomorphous, inclined to the right. Umbonal angle 48–58°. Blunt edge separates the frontal face and the rest of shell. Dorso-ventral margin rounded. The angle between ventral end of frontal face and ventral margin of the shell is almost sharp. Posterior wing separated by very shallow and wide sulcus. Outer surface almost smooth with fine growth wrinkles or with narrow regular growth bands combined with numerous radial ribs. On the inner surface prominent radial ribs are developed on frontal face (24) and posteriorly of posterior wing (7–11). On the central part of the shell the radial ribs (24–34) are less developed.
