Shell very thin walled, about ten times as broad as one mesh. Pores regular, hexagonal, with thread-like bars; six to eight on the radius. Radial spines at the nodal-points of the network, bristle-shaped, scarcely broader than the bars; about twenty main spines as long as the diameter of the shell, and numerous by-spines, only one-third to one-half as long as the former.
Dimensions:
Diameter of the shell 0.2 to 0.25, of the meshes 0.02 to 0.03, bars below 0.001; length of the main spines 0.2 to 0.3. | (Haeckel) 1887 |
