Shell subquadrate, hyaline; umbones prominent, broad, prosogyrate. Smooth. Periostracum highly polished, iridescent. Hinge plate feeble, with teeth in subequal series. Ligament external, opisthodetic, deeply sunken. Length to 7 mm.
The western Atlantic Clencharia abyssorum (Verrill and Bush, 1898) is very similar to this species and merits futher comparison.
