Description. Large, transverse linoporellid with brachial valve averaging 71% as long as wide (range 71-72%), and between 19 and 26% as deep as long in 3 valves. Dorsal interarea short, flat, anacline, with wide open notothyrium. Ornament poorly known, consisting of faint fine radial costellae. Cardinal process simple, blade-like, consisting of anteriorly widening shaft merging with notothyrial platform. Brachiophores short, with convergent bases extending forward for about one-fifth to one-quarter valve length; sockets narrow, with small curved fulcral plates. Dorsal adductor scars elongate and quadripartite, averaging 49% as long as valve (range 47-52%) in three valves, with anterior pair of scars larger than posterior pair. The muscle field is divided by a broad median septum. Pedicle valve Figs 32-35 Salopia ? pidvinala (Salter, 1864) from late Llandeilo pebbles in Trias, Budleigh Salterton, Devon.
