Original description Diagnosis. Shell of moderare size, inflated fusìform to subglobular, with rounded to bluntly pointed poles. Mature individuals possess 3.5 to 5.5 volutions. Proloculus usually large to very large. Volutions coìled loosely throughout. Spìrotheca very thick and composed of tectum and fine to coarse aÌveolar keriotheca. Discontinuous outer tectorium, developed in early 2 to 3 volutions, clearly indìcate phylogenetic relationship of Kushanella with Montiparus. Septa irregularly and widely fluted to wavy from pole to pole. Tunnel low and narrow. Weak chomata occur only on proloculus and early 2-3 volutions.
Distribution and age. Darvaz, Eastern Pricaspian region. Donets Basin; Upper Carboniferous, middle Kasimovian.
