Original description: Translated from French: Diagnosis: Transitional form, still closely related to Hedbergella hoelzli Hagn et Zeil, its ancestor. Chambers of the spiral side very pustulose and inflated. Two rows of thick pustules present on the edges of a narrow poreless carinal band, except for the two last chambers. All the other characteristics are as in the genus.
