Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| L. T. Groves and R. L. Squires 2023 | Shell of medium size, moderately inflated to inflated, smooth. Basal margin of shell can have distinct border. Aperture widens anteriorly and strongly curves posteriorly to left. Outer lip can be somewhat swollen. Teeth strong on both lips and can have extensive lateral extent. Teeth on outer lip numerous and closely spaced, either approximately same strength as those on inner lip or stronger. Teeth on inner lip numerous and commonly weaker than those on outer lip. Inner lip crenulations can extend short distance across basal face and onto outer lip. Fossula can be prominent and moderately long. Terminal ridge, if present, narrow and sharp. Posterior terminations (rostrae) short and low, and generally equal (Schilder 1927: p. 103). |
