Material: MNHN A25756 View Materials : a right scutum; MNHN A25757 View Materials : a right tergum.
In addition to the figured opercular plates, several unregistered specimens have been observed: complete shells and opercular plates from Saint Laurent-de-Lin commune and fragments of opercular plates from Ferrière-Larçon and Paulmy.
Measurements: MNHN A25756 View Materials : occludent margin 5.0 mm; MNHN A25757 View Materials : scutal margin 2.8 mm.
Description: The material studied herein conforms to the description of Stubbings (1963). Shape conical, smooth-walled; orifice toothed owing to oblique margins to radii. Parietal tubes septed. Scutum with prominent growth ridges cut by grooves radiating from apex; internally, adductor pit moderately deep, adductor ridge rather small; depressor muscle pit strongly developed, elongated, with characteristic deep furrow prolonging line of pit towards apex; spur fasciole, broad, truncate, separated by about half its width from basiscutal angle; basal margin on carinal side curves smoothly into spur.
