Notes
"L. ovatum Tate, 1887, from S. Australia with two cardinals and two laterals in one valve, a relatively inflated shape, very thin valves, and a distinct shape is not congeneric with the European type species either. Instead some features recall Parvikellia, where ovatum in tentatively placed." (Huber, 2015:506)
