Valves are elongate-elliptical with parallel to slightly convex margins and bluntly round ends (Figs 236–244). The valve length is 13.0–24.5 μm, and the breadth is 5.0–7.5 μm. The axial area is linear, expanding into a small rectangular central area, ca. 0.5–1.0 μm wide. The longitudinal canal is linear, with a rectangular central nodule (Figs 243–245). At the valve apices the axial area expands slightly on the both sides of the valve (Figs 243, 244). Externally, the canal is composed of one row of areolae throughout the whole length, covered with volate occlusions (Figs 243–245). The raphe is straight and slightly expanding into small drop-like central pores (Figs 244, 245). The distal raphe endings are simple and slightly expanded, terminating some distance from the valve margins (Figs 243, 244). The striae are parallel in the middle of the valve, becoming slightly radiate at the valve apices, 22–24 in 10 μm. The areolae of the alveolate striae are not discernible with LM and SEM observations, due to the volate occlusions that occupy less then half of the valve width (Figs 244, 245).
