Test low trochospiral, flattened to slightly convex spiral side and high vaulted umbilical side, equatorial periphery gently quadrilobate, axial periphery bluntly rounded, chambers angular, conical, four in the final whorl increasing slowly in size; sutures on spiral side slightly curved, depressed, on umbilical side sinuous to radial, depressed;
