Original diagnosis: Yun, 1981, p. 51
A species of Disphaeria with an epipericoel. The paratabulation of the periphragm is indicated by folds or very occasionally by ridges. The paratabulation is as follows: ?", 5", 6""", 1"""". A large precingular quadrangular archeopyle is present in both layers.

Original description: Yun, 1981, p. 51-52
The spherical endocyst has a dorsal precingular endoarcheopyle. A periarcheopyle is also dorsally situated. The smooth or perforated pericyst is divided into a large, inflated epicyst and a small hypocyst by a paracingulum which occurs as simple folds. Apart from the trapezoidal postcingular and precingular paraplates, there are an antapical and a triangular apical plate, both undifferentiated.
