[Bivalves of the Family Desertellidae have a shell that is] medium-sized, equivalve subequilateral, subtrigonal, but with [a] posterior end [that] is high and subtruncate; length and height [are] almost equal; [they have a] blunt diagonal ridge delimiting [a] relatively narrow posterior area; [the] shell wall [is] thick; [the] unbones [are] moderately well inflated and incurved, slightly opisthogyrous; [they have] no lunule or esiutcheon; [the] ligament [is] external, opisthodetic; [the] nymph [is] short and thick. Each valve [has] two teeth diverging from [the] beak, LV anterior and RV posterior almost equal in size, very stout and prominent, bluntly pointed, received in deep recesses; LV posterior and RV anterior [are] also almost equal, less prominent than [the] other two, each elongated and close to [the] margin, and each received in [a] recess between [the] major tooth of [the] opposite valve and [the] margin adjacent to it; [the] dentition of [the] valves thus [appears] identical when [the] interior of [the] shell is viewed; [the] adductor scars [are] subequal, placed rather dorsally, [the] posterior ones [are] almost superficial, each with [a] small accessory scar above it, [the] anterior ones [are] slightly impressed, each with [a] low buttress-like thickening of [the] shell wall on its posterior side in some specimens, and [a] small accessory scar on its posteroventral side; [the] pallial line [is] entire. [The] surface [has] fine concentric striae. [The] original shell structure (whether nacreous or not [is] unknown. [The] habitat [is] nonmarine.) "L Cret.

Ces quatre éléments sont disposés en allant du bord postérieur vers le bord antérieur sur la valve droite, et du bord antérieur vers le bord postérieur sur la valve gauche.
