Status This species is based on an indeterminate fragment which definitifely does not derive from a strongylocentrotid, or any regular euechinoid at all. Based on tubercle morphology and arrangement the fragment appears to come from the oral antero-lateral interambulacra of an spatangoid (probably a loveniid or spatangid). [details]
