commissure highly uniplicate; linguiform extension high and narrow, top truncated. Beak short, pointed, substraight to suberect; foramen large, oval in shape, hypothyridid, with well developed rim; deltidial plates wide, disjunct to just conjunct; beak ridges angular, extending laterally; interareas well defined and slightly concave with fine growth lines. Ventral valve gently convex at posterior and flattened anteriorly; sulcus well developed, deep and narrow, with flat bottom, occurring at about posterior 1/3 of valve, abruptly separated from slopes and turning over towards dorsal valve sharply at frontal margin, resulting in high linguiform extension. Dorsal valve moderately convex at umbonal region, but less tumid than in

subparallel; teeth fairly strong, massive and mallet-like, held tightly in sockets; accessory denticulars and dental cavities present. Septalium variably developed, generally short and V-shaped; septum low and massive, only supporting septalium at very posterior part and most part of it existing as a median ridge, running about 1/3 or more of dorsal valve length; hinge plates relatively thick and broad, almost horizontal or slightly inclined ventrally at anterior parts; inner socket ridges well developed, but not strong; crural bases narrow, well formed and given off dorsally from inner margins of hinge plates; crura thick, about 1/4 to 1/3 dorsal valve length, calcarifer, incurved ventrally at anterior parts.
428:, norelliform stage feebly recognizable, sulcation short or even absent; fold eminent, narrow and well elevated over slopes with steep flanks, occurring at about posterior 1/3 to 1/2 of valve and making valve trilobate anteriorly. In some specimens, umbonal region more or less depressed, smooth area generally short or absent. Costae numerous, subangular, on each valve numbering 19-26, with 4-6 on fold and 3-5 in sinus; growth lines feeble, only visible at anterior margin. At gerontic stage, Shell thickened markedly along margins and frontal margin somewhat truncated, reminiscent of
