). The antero-dorsal rim is slightly elevated, but not protruding dorsally, while the anterior rim forms a large, obtuse rostrum. The inner face is slightly convex; the outer face is concave posteriorly, but may be slightly convex anteriorly. The sulcus is well-divided into an elongate ostium and a very short, much narrower cauda that points downwards. Both the ostium and cauda are filled with a colliculum each. The ventral area is of similar size to the dorsal area. There is a shallow, elongate dorsal depression above the crista superior.
