Lip papillae not reported in original description. Basal colour uniformly translucent white. Masticatory processes of jaws with irregular denticlesandpossibly with ridge-like structures. Radula with up to 32 rows of teeth. Central tooth with deep furrows andwith upto 13 distinct denticles. Up toeight lateral teeth with up to ten denticles. Ampulla with three loops.
