Diagnosis
Species of
Shevyrevites
with conch reaching
60 mm
dm. Subadult stage with oval, slightly compressed whorl profile (ww/wh = 0.60–0.75) and rounded venter; multiple fine ribs. Adult stage with parallelsided, slightly compressed whorl profile (ww/wh =0.60–0.75), rounded venter and rounded ventrolateral shoulder; multiple fine riblets on the flank. Prongs of external lobe bifid; altogether 11 notches of E, A and L lobes.
Etymology
From the Latin ‘
corrugatus
’, meaning ‘folded’, because of the corrugate sculpture.

Description
Holotype
MB.C.29718 has
37 mm
conch diameter and shows half of a volution preserved that belongs to the terminal body chamber (
Fig. 19B
); the maximum phragmocone diameter is
27 mm
. The phragmocone

shows rather densely spaced septa (18 per volution), but the last four are then strikingly crowded and indicate adulthood. The conch is extremely discoidal (ww/dm=0.20) and subevolute (uw/dm =0.43) with applanate flanks and a rounded venter. The sculpture consists of numerous densely spaced and sharp radial riblets (about 30 on half a volution in the adult stage), which on the body chamber extend with a shallow concave sinus across the flanks.
The suture line of the
holotype
has a nearly parallel-sided, weakly pouched external lobe that is almost as deep as the adventive lobe; it has asymmetric prongs that are subdivided by two notches. The slightly asymmetric ventrolateral saddle is inverted U-shaped and followed by the asymmetric adventive lobe with five small notches, an asymmetric lateral saddle and an asymmetric lateral lobe with four notches (
Fig. 19C
).
Remarks
The new species differs from the other species of
Shevyrevites
by the much weaker sculpture, which consists of feeble riblets in contrast to the coarser ribs in
S. shevyrevi
and the conical nodes in
S. nodosus
.
Stratigraphic range
Upper part of the Hambast Formation; float but probably
4.80 m
below the extinction horizon (red nodular limestone in the
Shevyrevites shevyrevi
Zone
).
