Diagnosis The shell is flat, discoid and consists of 2–3 whorls, which show only little overlap. The diameter of the tube-like last whorl increases slightly but consistently toward the aperture. The aperture is almost circular, the outer lip is sharp, the inner lip very thin. The surface exposes faint growth lines [...]. The depression on the lower side is barely deeper than on the upper side. [translated from Stoliczka 1862: p. 532] [details]
