Diagnosis
Reference | Diagnosis | |
---|---|---|
D.K. Pandey et al. 2012 | Shells small to large, incomplete, septate till end, and evolute. Inner whorls slightly depressed, outer whorls compressed. Whorl section subrounded, the slightly convex lanks merge smoothly into the moderately arched venter (Fig. 23A-F). Umbilical wall short, steeply inclined. Ornamentation consists of gradually variocostate, moderately coarse, sharp primary ribs originating near the umbilical suture with rursiradiate orientation then turning prorsiradiate near the umbilical margin, from where they run consistently forwardinclined on the lanks. Primaries branch regularly into two (rarely three on the outer whorl) iner secondaries at the ventrolateral region (Fig. 23G) and cross the venter with slight forward-directed convexity. Primaries on outer whorls become rectiradiate. Ribbing density is moderate, increases during growth until a diameter of around 100 mm (Fig. 24). Constrictions distinct, numbering three per whorl. |
