Diagnoza

Stout form (ww/dm 0.70 at 17 mm dm) with thick, disc-shaped shell and very narrow umbilicus; rather coarsely crenulated growth lines and without spiral lines, without ventrolateral projection of the growth lines; ornamentation with fine, rough and slightly serrated growth lines that run slightly biconvex and form a deep external sinus.

Porównanie

The lack of spiral stripes distinguishes this species from most other Sudeticeras; Sudeticeras hoeferi is similar, but has significantly more curved growth stripes; most species of Sudeticeras, such as Sudeticeras crenistriatum, have weaker curved growth stripes
