The dorsal margin is arch-shaped whereas the ventral margin shows a more or less pronounced concavity. Both anterior-and posterior are broadly rounded.

Chronostratigraphical and geographical distribution. The species is known from Pannonian strata of Serbia, appearing in the Hemicytheria tenuistriata zone (Krstić, 1985).
