Tegumen half the length of valva, with very broad and rounded densely scobinate lateral plates. Gnathos highly modified and sclerotized, medially dilated and shield-like, with a prominent anteromedial process and two pairs of posterior processes, where lateral pair short and wide, fused with marginally longer digitiform medial process for around half their shared length, medial processes encompassing an excavation into central gnathos plate, not reaching the centre.
