Description Centrodorsal cavity moderate to large; rosette not sunken below aboral surface of radial pentagon, its interradial extensions not forming "spoutlike" processes; no calcareous deposit (central plug) within radial pentagon or on rosette; muscular fossae on radial articular faces thin-walled, their faces parallel to oral/aboral axis, or nearly so; articular fossae distal to transverse ridge strongly excavated; brachials from second syzygy onward usually triangular or obliquely wedge-shaped; second brachial syzygy usually at 9+10; distal brachial syzygies evenly
and closely spaced; pinnules cylindrical or more or less flattened, never prismatic, and without aboral carination; first two segments of distal pinnules broadened; those beyond the third are elongate; radials 5 except in Promachocrinus, which has 10. (Modified from Clark and Clark, 1967). Molecular evidence indicates that this family is polyphyletic. [details]
