Translated description: [Small, obtuse, ovate shell; small, frontal, globose cephalis, and with a short spine; near the cephalis, 1-3 short ribs can be seen, depending on the orientation; on the surface are small pores arranged quincuncially; on the cephalis the pores are irregular, contiguous and sparse. Length without spine 94-120 µ, maximum breadth 94-60 µ, 8 pores in 24 µ. (Translated from Latin by E.M.R. and W.R.R.)]
Remarks on original description: Premature name in Ehrenberg, 1860a [775:768] and Ehrenberg, 1860b [776:823[comment from RadWorld database]
