Diagnosis

Endocarp bilaterally symmetrical, elliptical to ovate, occasionally globular, with a reticulate pattern of rectangular (I-Beam) ridges that delimit about 11 polygonal areoles on each face, with few or no freely ending ridgelets. A keel surrounds the endocarp in the plane of symmetry, with the thicker margin containing a vascular bundle embedded in the endocarp wall. Endocarp possessing an apical hole. Endocarp wall about 0.26–0.50 mm thick (excluding ridges; 0.43–0.58 mm including ridges). Inner endocarp surface densely covered with regularly spaced, sessile papillae, rounded in shape with small punctuations/depressions on the surface. Length of endocarp 3.72–9.29 mm, width 3.01–6.54 mm.
