108: 381:, with two adductor muscle scars and a pallial line that is slightly concave at the anterior end and has a broad pallial sinus at the posterior end. There is a gape at both ends of the shell and a pair of long siphons emerge from the posterior end being fused for their full length. The mantle margins are also fused apart from a small gap at the anterior end and the foot is small. 377:
