Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| B. S. Kues et al. 2002 | Specimens are small to medium in size, reaching a maximum width of approximately 25 mm. They are not geniculate, and have a narrow medial selenizone that is flush with the shell surface, and a deep, relatively wide sinus. The lateral lips meet the sides of the shell in a gentle curve, and an umbilicus is lacking. Ornamentation consists of approximately 18–22 sharp, widely spaced inductural lirae, separated by interspaces two to three times the width of a lira. |
