6 calcareous spines with a small ciliated tubercle located in its center. The anal papilla is situated within the circle of the branchial plume. The anterior border of the foot is labiate and notched. The foot is wide relative to the mantle margin. The oral tentacles are well-formed and appear conical in shape.

The labial cuticle is smooth with two small rectangular areas where chitinous jaws are present. The jaws contain numerous rodlets that are elongate and have a broader apical end (Fig. 2B). The radular formula of the holotype is 73 X 67.25.1.0.1. 25.67 (Fig. 2C). The innermost lateral teeth are deeply arched and bifurcate with an inner denticulate lobe and an outer acutely pointed secondary cusp (
