Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| J. A. Monteros and M. C. Moya 2011 | Triradiate rhabdosome, though generally with pseudo-quadriradiate symmetry; delicate, with horizontal form and variable size (8 to 20 mm diameter). The proximal development is isograptid, with right-handed origin and dextral growth of the first dicalycal thecae (th1(2)). Consisting of few thin stipes (0.30-0.47 mm dorso-ventral width); variable branching pattern, with very short first and second order stipes (first order stipe 1 is always the shortest). Markedly asymmetrical proximal development in lateral view. Long and thin sicula with blunt ápex (average length 1.5 mm), probably due to loss of part of the prosicula. Thin, straight to gently curved autothecae, with slightly denticulate thecal apertures; with bithecas. The thecal density is 10-12 in 10 mm. |
