W.-H. Wang and T. Servais 2015 | The largest reminiscent of the rhabdosome suggests that the total length exceeded at least 77.9 mm long with a distal width of 56.7 mm. The length-width ratio is commonly higher than 1.3, with a rapid initial dichotomous branching. The mesh pattern is characterised by a quite regular distribution of stipes and dissepiments giving rise to sub-rounded fenestrulae. The meshwork generally possesses 9-13 stipes in 10 mm. Dissepiments join the stipes and show a characteristic pouch-like “balconies” morphology. The stipes are slightly undulating. The lateral stipe width ranges from 0.3 to 0.6 mm. The dissepiments are variable, sometimes 8 to 12 in 10 mm, rarely angular. Cortical overgrowth happened in the rhabdosome and dissepiments make the appearance of the meshwork in this species characteristically coarse and robust (Fig. 5 B, D). |
