[Miller & Furnish, 1940, p.129: In typical representatives of the genus, the conch is subglobular to subdiscoidal, the umbilicus small, and the growth lines form ventral sinuses. The living chamber is about  a volution in length, and  at full maturity a prominent apertural constriction is developed. In many forms sinuous transverse constrictions on the internal mold are due to internal thickenings of the shell. The sutures form a bifid ventral lobe, several external lateral lobes, a subdivided umbilical lobe, several internal lateral lobes, and a trifid dorsal lobe. The prongs of the ventral lobe and most of the lateral lobes are digitate, being either bifid, trifid, or quadrifid. There is a progressive decrease in the size of the lobes and in the prominenece of their digitation from the venter toward the umbilicus].
