| W. P. Popenoe 1937 | The following notes are given on the dentition of this species: Right anterior cardinal very small, slender, short, diverging at a small angle from the hinge-margin directly anterior to the beak, extending ventrally only halfway across the hinge-plate; median right cardinal rather heavy, low, trigonal; posterior right cardinal heavy, long, slightly curved, situated close up under the nymph, from which it is separated by a narrow groove; a thin Iamellar ridge rising from the floor of the socket between the anterior and median right cardinals extends about halfway from the ventral edge of the hinge plate toward the beak; left anterior and median cardinals short, slender, joined dorsally, diverging ventrally at a high angle; posterior left cardinal long, laminar, oblique, situated just below the nymph; lateral teeth apparently absent; pallial sinus long, narrow, pointed, ascending, directed toward the umbos. |
