Body form (Figure 2, Table 4) almost cylindrical, length up to 200 mm, width 30–60 mm when contracted. Body wall thick (about 7 mm) and leathery. Dorsal surface (bivium) (Figure 2A) rounded, bearing small conical tubercles/verrucosities, scattered, each terminating in a small, elongated papilla. Ventral surface (trivium) (Figure 2B) rounded in contracted state. Pedicels/tube feet numerous, crowded, no regular arrangement. Mouth ventral, surrounded by 20 tentacles; anus ventral, anal papillae well developed (5 series of 3 each, in each ambulacrum). Live colouration varying from light brown, red mahogany, to brown or black; ventral surface generally lighter (light brown). Longitudinal muscles about 8–9 mm in thickness. Cuvierian tubules absent. Stone canals 1–2. Polian vesicles several, 1–4 (if 4, one on middle and three on right side of dorsal mesentery), average length &lt;10 mm. Tentacular ampullae about 8 mm long. Collar around mouth thin (about 1.30 mm). Calcareous ring not stout, radial plates (Table 4) with broad anterior notch and only slightly concave posterior margin.</p> <p>Ossicles. Ossicle types from the dorsal and ventral surfaces appear identical, they comprise tables and buttons. Tables (Figure 2 Ca) small and four-pillared, average height of spire less than average diameter of disc. Disc slightly arched. Some tables with a thorny disc generally pierced with 4 large holes and a variable number of peripheral ones. Buttons (Figure 2 Cb) appear oval in shape, about 101.25 and 73.75 µm long dorsally and ventrally respectively and 44.25 and 38.70 µm wide dorsally and ventrally respectively, not very thick but with a regular, rough surface with small, conical or pointed spines; holes average about 7, with a roughened periphery, arranged in two rows relative to the central axis of the button; holes may be partitioned, round, irregular in outline, but often become minute or even completely obliterated, then giving the buttons a solid but rough appearance. Average width of the holes of buttons 6.75 and 5.75 μm dorsally and ventrally respectively. Pseudo-buttons abundant but fenestrated ellipsoids scarce. Pedicels contain perforated plates, which are of two types; the first are enlarged (Figure 2 Da), with large central perforations symmetrically arranged along the central axis, surrounded by other smaller perforations, the second type of plates are thick, rough and elongated (Figure 2 Db) with an irregular outline and with only few large perforations at their lateral and terminal ends. The enlarged plates of the ventral surface have a smooth surface but an irregular and prickly outline and with two rows of large perforations symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the plate and surrounded by several smaller perforations. Tentacles present two forms of thick rods (19 µm); straight rods (Figure 2 Ea) and those that are slightly arched (Figure 2 Eb).</p></div> 	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/DC769818FFB5FFC0E9A3FAD0F295FDBC	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Body form generally arched dorsally (Figure 3A), little flattened ventrally (Figure 3B). Length up to 185 mm, width up to 45 mm when contracted. Body wall thin (up to 4 mm) in relaxed state. Pedicels/tube feet irregularly distributed on ventral side. Conical verrucosities of dorsal surface minute or lacking. Mouth ventral, tentacles usually 20, anus terminal, anal papillae well developed (5 series of 4 each, in each radius). Live colouration of dorsal surface brown bitumen, ventral surface light gray. Longitudinal muscles about 10–14 mm in thickness. Cuvierian tubules absent. Stone canals several, 5–6 on right and 2–4 on left side of dorsal mesentery, average length &lt;1 cm. Polian vesicle single, up to 30 mm long. Tentacular ampullae&gt; 8 mm. Collar around mouth thin (about 0.69 mm). Calcareous ring (Table 4) large/stout with expanded radial plates, each with a broad anterior notch, slightly bifurcate anterior parts and a flat or slightly indented posterior margin.</p> <p>Ossicles. Dorsal and ventral surfaces comprise the same type of ossicles; tables (Figure 3 Ca) and buttons (Figure 3 Cb). Table disc of ventral surface wheel-shaped with a variable number of spokes.

Buttons thick, oval, about 69.10 and 58 µm long dorsally and ventrally respectively and 35.60 and 31 µm wide dorsally and ventrally respectively. Margins of buttons irregular, wavy and rough; holes average about 7, quite large, usually oval but can become obliterated to disappear completely, thus giving the button a solid, rough appearance. Average width of the holes 7.80 and 4.90 μm dorsally and ventrally respectively. Generally, the symmetrical holes in the center of the buttons are wider than the terminal ones which are rather oval in shape. Pseudo-buttons abundant, fenestrated ellipsoids scarce.</p> <p>Pedicels present perforated plates. Enlarged plates (Figure 3 Da) rectangular in shape and smooth. The central perforations are surrounded by smaller, circular ones; other plates generally oval in shape with an irregular outline; elongated plates (Figure 3 Db) simple and irregular in outline. Ventral surface also present terminal plates (Figure 3 Dc). Tentacles possess thin rods (12 µm) (Figure 3 Ea and Figure 3 Eb).</p></div> 	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/DC769818FFB3FFC0E9A3FD65F2E5F82D	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
