Phylum: Bacillariophyta
Class: Bacillariophyceae

Description:
The cells have a broadly elliptical shape when viewed from the valve. They can be found in straight or curved chains of varying lengths, and the pervalvar axis is somewhat elongated. . The valves have a slightly convex surface with an elliptical outline, and the valve mantle is high without a groove at the base. Processes on the valves are thin but sturdy, each ending with a robust claw.The cell wall is more heavily siliceous and exhibits areolated-punctated characteristics. The areolae are arranged radially, and on the mantle surface, they are pervalvar. These rows of areolae have a distinct eccentric arrangement, where the center of the areolation does not coincide with the center of the valve but is located on one of the mantle surfaces.
