Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| C. B. Skovsted et al. 2009 | Species of Camenella with sclerites characterised by strong co−marginal ribs ornamented by nodes and a superimposed reticulate pattern. Inter rib areas smooth or with fine transverse growth lines. Sellate sclerite strongly asymmetrical with prominent sella separating large and small lobes. Large lobe with one or two poorly defined subsidiary folds and a weakly developed rib separating the lobe from the sella. Apex tightly coiled (up to 1.5 whorls) with duplicature adpressed to the inside of the sella. Mitral sclerite acutely pyramidal with obplicate and accrescent sides strongly developed. Both plicate and obplicate sides with three pronounced radial ridges separated by two deep folds. |
