Paired petals long,narrow, shallowly depressed, and with subparallel pore series. Anterior pair widely splayed, posterior pair less so. Primary tubercles crenulate, restricted to the posterior plate series of the paired interambs within the peripetalous fasciole. Labrum very short, extending only halfway along the first plate of the adjacent ambulacra. [details]
