Diagnosis Medium sized species, elongated (in the specimens of New Caledonia and Palau) with a maximum width very rear of the center (mean TW = 97% TL), profile low, small and ellipsoidalshaped to slit-like lunules. Petalodium highly variable (30 to 38% TL) smaller in the samples of New
Caledonia and in those of North Sulawesi, the greater one in the specimen from Palau. In the oral face of the inter. 5 there are 2–3 post-basicoronal plates in column "a" and 3 in column "b", with 2a and 2b partially paired; between the petals and the lunules there are 4-5 couples of plates.
