Holotype. AMF84389a (external mould of cranidium).

Paratype material. From NU L740: AMF84389b (internal cranidium), AMF84390 (external librigena). From NU L366: AMF84391 (external librigena), AMF85454 (external pygidium), AMF85456 (external pygidium). Locality. Type—NU L740. Other—NU L366.

Emended diagnosis. Very wide preglabellar field; short glabella, only half the cephalic length; both the glabella and preglabellar field are densely nodose; anterior border is upturned with two strong terrace lines; eyes are small, narrow and steep; short pointed genal spines. Pygidium with 10–12 axial rings; rings with large central node, smaller nodes at sides; densely nodose.

Remarks. A diagnosis is not provided by Engel & Morris (1992), only a morphological description. The above serves as a diagnosis for the species.
