Shell thick and solid, inflated, inequilateral, roughly quadrate in shape with arcuate ventral margin and obliquely truncate posterior margin; slightly inequivalve, left valve distinctly overlapping the right valve ventrally and posteriorly. Cardinal area rather long and narrow. About 33 radial ribs (30 to 36) at each valve; ribs as wide as the interstices, granulated on left valve. Periostracum well developed. Internal margins with strong crenulations corresponding with the external radial ribs. No byssal gape. Colour: outside of shell white under the blackish brown periostracum. Inner side whitish.
Common depth values based on occurrence. On fine muddy-sand bottoms (Ref. 126564), in bays and coastal lagoons (Ref. 348 and 75831).
Life cycle and mating behavior

Members of the class Bivalvia are mostly gonochoric, some are protandric hermaphrodites. Life cycle: Embryos develop into free-swimming trocophore larvae, succeeded by the bivalve veliger, resembling a miniature clam.
