«The holotype, a right valve, is higher than long, fairly convex and is ornamented with low, but fairly wide, rounded folds, hardly noticeable on the dorsal part of the shell, but well defined ventrally. In addition, there is a very fine, divaricate and mesh-like ornament, as in Pecten chiwanae n. sp. on the central part of the shell and a Camptonectes-like pattern on the anterior and posterior borders. The ears appear to have only fine, concentric ornament. This species has lower, wider and more rounded ribs than Pecten chiwanae.
Name. Sasuchan, a band of Sekani Indians. Type. The holotype, cat. no. 8787, is from the poyana zone on Pardonet hill.» FRANK HARRIS MCLEARN, 1941
