Original Description
Cortical shell thorny, in the lateral plane with eight strong conical radial spines, alternating with eight smaller spines; four of the eight stronger spines opposite on the poles of the principal and transverse axes (in the figure 5, by mistake, not represented large enough), four others between those, opposite on the poles of the two crossed diagonal axes. Pores with a peculiar disposition; on both flat sides of the lentellipsis an elliptical ring of eight large elliptical pores (alternating with the eight stronger radial spines), separated by bands of smaller irregular pores. Proportion of the three axes = 2: 3: 4. Medullary shell nearly half as long as the cortical shell.
Length of the cortical shell 0.16, breadth 0.13, height 0.08; large pores 0.03, small pores 0.003 to 0.01, bars 0.006; length of the medullary shell 0.07.
