ReferenceDiagnosis
B. G. Baarli et al. 2022Smooth, small, elongate, and biconvex shells with weak plications bounding the sulcus and fold. Teeth are slender; the hinge plates are high without a median septum, and there are relatively few whorls in the spiralia. They may have a whole jugum or jugal processes.
