Description. The carapace has a typical Cyprideis shape with a subovate contour in lateral view and a very slightly arched dorsal margin. The greatest width of the valve lays in the third-half of the length. The ventral margin is almost straight and continues smoothly onto the anterior- and the posterior end. The valves surface shows a finely pitted ornamentation. Noticeable is the small size of this species compared to the tubercles bearing and distantly larger C. torosa . It is however possible to be part of the C. torosa group. Dimension: Female: l = 0,75-0,83 mm, h = 0,41- 0,44 mm, b = 0,34 – 0,37 mm; Male: l = 0,74- 0,76 mm, h = 0,38 – 0,40 mm.
