Horizon and Locality. Middle Callovian, sample B97, Mandawa Anticline (Text-fig. 3). Description. Carapace distinctly dimorphic, males very positively tapering to posterior end. Left valve larger than right. Ornamentation striking - a tri- angular arrangement of ridges with minor connecting ridges. Anterior marginal border distinct. Oblique antero-dorsal furrow clearly marked; postero-dorsal furrow present in female. Hinge lobodont, antero-median element loculate in right valve (Text-fig. 11a). Duplicature broad, without a vestibule. Marginal pore canals not clearly seen but in one specimen (Text-fig. 11b) straight, splayed out and few in number (8 observed anteriorly).
