Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| M. Bilotta 2010 | Platycone shells, compressed, with evolute inner whorls and from involute to moderately involute outer whorls. Sub-elliptic whorl section, higher than wide. Smooth phragmocone; body chamber often ornated by sinuous biconcave
constrictions, and in some forms also by thin hemi-ribs (due to the bundling of sinuous striae) ending with short cuneiform tubercle-spines. Quite simple suture line: the L lobe is long about as twice as E or a little more; large U2 lobe, as long as L or a little less; the remaining umbilical lobes are simple and placed on an oblique line (appearing slightly suspensive); LS1 saddle much more advanced and wide than ES; sub-lituid and embracing I lobe. |
