Description "Shape sub-rectangular with the greatest height in the anterior third and coincides with the small eye tubercle. Greatest length at mid-height. Ventral outline slightly concave at the oral region. Dorsal outline almost straight, slightly sloping towards the posterior cardinal angle; jagged as a result of 4-5 tiny thin spines, situated on the extreme edge of the dorsal outline (seen laterally). Anterior evenly rounded with 20-22 variously sized spines. Posterior obtuse with 10-12 short spines. Posterior cardinal angle with a long flat spine (only in the LV). Ventral ridge strongly developed, with a pronounced terminal spine, followed by a row of 4-5 minor spines. Ventral ridge curving upwards anteriorly but merges into carapace surface. Ocular ridge only faintly developed. Eye tubercle present but small. The dorsal ridge begins with an angle just in front of the posterior cardinal angle (best seen in dorsal view), sloping downwards and decreasing in strength towards the anterior, terminating with a hook-like curve at the eye tubercle. Surface completely covered with a very low, irregular mesh network, which is filled with a dense covering of secondary punctations. Muri often with disjunctive lateral pores. 30-35 straight and simple anterior marginal pore canals (rarely bifurcate) and 10-15 simple posterior ones have been observed. Hinge holamphidont (according to GRUNDEL 1974) with a weak crenulation on the horizontal plane of the median bar of LV. Posterior tooth of right hinge lobate. Central muscle scars consisting of a vertical row of four adductor scars and two frontal scars with the distal one appearing fused of two formerly distinct scars." (Hornibrook, 1952: 62) [details]

Etymology "From cupa (latin) = runner or skid; according to the appearance of the lateral, ventral ridge." (Hornibrook, 1952: 62)

Description "Shape sub-rectangular with the greatest height in the anterior third and coincides with the small eye tubercle. Greatest length at mid-height. Ventral outline slightly concave at the oral region. Dorsal outline almost straight, slightly sloping towards the posterior cardinal angle; jagged as a result of 4-5 tiny thin spines, situated on the extreme edge of the dorsal outline (seen laterally). Anterior evenly rounded with 20-22 variously sized spines. Posterior obtuse with 10-12 short spines. Posterior cardinal angle with a long flat spine (only in the LV). Ventral ridge strongly developed, with a pronounced terminal spine, followed by a row of 4-5 minor spines. Ventral ridge curving upwards anteriorly but merges into carapace surface. Ocular ridge only faintly developed. Eye tubercle present but small. The dorsal ridge begins with an angle just in front of the posterior cardinal angle (best seen in dorsal view), sloping downwards and decreasing in strength towards the anterior, terminating with a hook-like curve at the eye tubercle.

Diagnosis "A large Bradleya species with a well-pronounced ventral ridge, a faint ocular ridge and a rather weak reticulation, consisting of irregular primary meshes, filled with dense fine secondary, finely scalloped punctations." (Hornibrook, 1952: 62)
