Original Description

"Shell oval, planoconvex, with flattened dorsal and convex ventral sides. Whorls, 2. The first whorl is poorly distinguished because of its very small size. The second whorl is obvious and consists of 5 or 6 chambers which gradually increase in size. The last chamber is considerably larger than the penultimate one. The peripheral margin is scalloped, acute, and sometimes possesses a narrow keel. On the dorsal side the chambers have a semicircular outline, on the ventral side it is triangular. The umbilical ends of the chambers are closely joined together so that there is an open and deep umbilicus. The septal sutures are slightly curved and recessed. The orifice is furnished with a slender and narrow lip. In some specimens the orifice appears to extend along the whole of the marginal suture from the umbilicus to the periperal margin and may even extend on to the peripheral margin itself. The wall is thin, smooth, transparent and perforated by fine pores. Dimensions: 0.23-0.26 mm, thickness 0.06-0.08 mm."
