Ventral margin fairly strongly concavely indented approximately in the centre; the lower part of the anterior margin fairly strongly drawn forward. Dorsal margin in general curved in distinctly convex fashion. Left valve always larger than right valve. Some species with a smooth carapace surface, without any sculpture, however the majority of species with striking variable [in individual cases] nodes, individual spines, striation sculptures or hookshaped bending round of the posterior margin of the larger left valve.
