Description. Small, short and ovoidal carapace. Ventral overlap of the larger LV over the RV, and also very slight overlap in the antero-dorsal part. Bow-shaped projection in ventral view. Hmax at 2 / 5 posterior; Lmax median; Wmax almost median. Well rounded, regularly convex dorsal and ventral margins, converging both anteriorly and posteriorly. Regularly convex and arched anterior margin. Convex posterior margin, more arched in its dorsal part. Anterior and posterior parts of the carapace almost symmetrical. Surface smooth. Fine oblique ridge on the smaller RV, extending from the centre to the postero-ventral part of the valve.

Discussion. These specimens remind of those figured by Coen (1985). However, the carapace of the specimens from the Candás Fm is clearly larger than O. cicatricosa, especially since the specimen figured herein shows juvenile features (see Coen 1985). Occurrences. Middle Givetian (Candás Fm, mb C), Asturias (Peran-Perlora section).
