Species:
Cell body 180-(210-493)-540 μm long, (24-45)-52 μm wide
(cf. C. intermedium < 25 μm), L/W = 8-12,
slightly curved, tapered at both ends, not swelled in the middle (cf. C. rostratum),
both ends broadly truncated with slanting edges;
cell wall brown in color and striated, 5-10 striae in 10 μm;
chloroplasts with with 5-9 pyrenoids in each semicells
