Tergum quadrilateral, withnearly straight sides, about twice as long as wide, withrather widely spaced and not very prominent lines ofgrowth, and with a faint ridge running from the apex to thebasal angle; the straight occludent margin forms a slightangle with that of the scutum. Scutum triangular, with theinner margin obtusely angled about its middle, so that thevalve becomes almost quadrilateral, about twice as hig
