Based on young specimen (BL 35. 0 mm, ZIN 2449): Anterior five valves in contact, remaining valves separated from each other. Color of tegmentum white or light gray, with brownish tint on pleurolateral area in valves II and III, fine dark brownish streaks on pleurolateral area and dark brownish jugum on valves V and VI. Girdle white in anterior half, yellowish buff in posterior half, with dark brownish transverse bands in the middle part. Ventral side of girdle uniformly light gray.

Head valve elongate semicircular, longer than wide, sculptured with elongate pustules. Pustules are irregularly fused with neighboring ones, which are more frequently fused towards the margin of the tegmentum, forming almost flat surface. Valve II oval, widest among all valves. Valve IIIVIII narrow, spindle-shaped, of which valve IV is the longest and valves VII and VIII are the shortest. Jugum smooth, wedge-shaped in valves II and III, very narrow and parallel sided in remaining valves. Pleurolateral area sculptured with 56 longitudinal, slightly radiated ribs formed by coalescence of pustules. In larger specimens, outer longitudinal ribs of valves IIVIII extending commarginally into jugal area, which interrupt inner ribs and even the jugum. Those longitudinal and commarginal ribs often obsolete in the anterior portion of valves (
