Original description 壳中等大小,外形为厚纺锤形,近似圆筒形,菜瓜形。壳体由 6 -7,5 组成。旋壁基本上由致密层,较宽的半透明层及上、下疏松层所组成:在较大个体半透明层中可见少量的微管构造。隔壁普遍规则褶皱。旋脊除倒数第二圈外,均为假旋脊所取代。初房小,球形。具狭窄、不甚清晰的串孔:轴积发育,平行于轴,或分布于轴的两侧。
分布时代:和田县皮牙曼山区;早二叠世。

The shell is medium-sized, with a thick fusiform, sub-cylindrical, or melon-like shape. It consists of 6 to 7.5 whorls. The spirotheca is composed primarily of a dense layer, a relatively wide translucent layer, and upper and lower keriothecal (alveolar) layers; in larger specimens, minute tubular structures are visible within the translucent layer. The septa are generally regularly folded. Except for the penultimate whorl, the chomata are replaced by pseudochomata. The proloculus is small and spherical. Narrow, indistinct septal pores are present; axial fillings are well-developed, oriented parallel to the axis or distributed on both sides of it.
Distribution and Age: Piyaman Mountain area, Hotan County; Early Permian. [details]
