Etymology Gr. With reference to the ongms of this species in the bathyal realm of the Lord Howe Rise.
Description Medium, moderately robust. Sub-rectangular. Anterior margin broadly and asymmetrically convex with extremity below mid-height; denticulate with approximately 20 moderately long marginal denticles. Posterior narrower, truncate with slight concavity postero-dorsally in RV only; approximately six marginal denticles. Dorsal margins straight to slightly concave with anterior hinge ear and postero-dorsal spine in LV only. Ventral margin straight to slightly convex. Maximum length below midheight; maximum height at anterior cardinal angle; maximum width in posterior third. LV slightly larger than and overlapping RV dorsally. Reticulum rather low. Ventro-Iateral ridge strong, continuous around anterior margin into an ocular ridge which is rather less strongly emphasized and only sub-parallel to the anterior margin. Dorsal ridge moderately well developed, spinose in its posterior half. Bridge subdued, sub-rectangular with anterodorsal corner right-angled and antero-ventral corner rounded. Reticulum low, regular with equal emphasis of horizontal and vertical elements. Muri low, sparsely foveolate. Fossae open, shallow with weak secondary divisions and secondary reticulation. Posterior reticulum a box-like network with a group of 4 subquadrate central fossae. Normal pore canal distribution as for the genus. Internal features as for the genus; crenulate median element in hinge. [details]
