Description:
Valves lanceolate with apiculate ends (L 23-40µm, W 2-3,5µm, 10-12 fibulae in 10µm). Raphe keel very eccentric with evenly spaced fibulae, the middle two sometimes a little bit more spaced than the others. Each fibula lies at the origin of at least two striae with a third placed between these two striae. Transapical striae quite visible in LM, 19-24 in 10µm.
