Description Small-sized species (13–25 μm long, 10–22 μm wide) with a subcircular outline. Cells dorso-ventrally flattened (9–11 μm thick). Cingulum slightly premedian, displaced 11–27% of the cell length. Small sulcus extension onto the epicone. Yellow-green elongate chloroplasts, variable in number. Nucleus spherical to elongate in shape located in the hypocone. Thick and very short apical groove extending dorsally over 1/3 or less of the epicone. (Chang, 1999).  [details]
