Morphometrics: Valves 95–170 μm long, 15–16 μm wide, transapical striae 9–10 in 10 μm.

Remarks: As observed locally, these specimens are much smaller in size than Ardissonea formosa (95–170 μm: 320–380 μm in length) and has convex margins of the valve. It was encountered rarely in the Seoqwipo coast.
