Distribution.
Persian Gulf; Indo-West Pacific, from Japan to the Arafura Sea (Robba et al. 2004; Okutani 2017). Several records of fossils from the Late Miocene to Holocene in India, Indonesia, Japan, Taiwan, and Thailand (Robba et al. 2004; Dharma 2005).

Taxonomic remarks and comparisons.
This species is recognised by an irregularly subrectangular and flattened shell, with a small apex close to the posterior margin, and a shelf-like internal septum attached just inside the posterior margin (Robba et al. 2004). See also comprehensive taxonomic remarks in Low and Tan (2014).
Superfamily Tonnoidea Suter, 1913
