Diagnosis. Test up to about 10 mm in length; almost as wide as long; subglobular with weakly domed upper surface; tallest point more or less coincidental with the apical system. In profile, the posterior face is more or less vertical or slopes slightly outwards. Apical disc ethmolytic with four gonopores. Anterior ambulacrum slightly sunken adapically. but becoming flush towards the ambitus; pore-pairs strongly oblique. Anterior petals rather narrow, diverging at ca. 110-120°. Posterior petals about half the length of the anterior petals; not strongly bowed. Peripetalous fasciole oval without inden- tation behind anterior petals. Periproct high on posterior face. Peristome small, kidney-shaped with prominent rim. Labral plate elongate; about half the length of the succeeding sternal plates. Material studied. BMNH EE4401-02, EE6240-49.
