Diagnosis Atelecrinidae with centrodorsal hollow and thin-walled, closely joined to basal ring; central cavity diameter >0.6 of basal diameter; adoral rim of centrodorsal with five shallow interradial depressions. Cirrus sockets in 10 columns with moderately to strongly developed aborally-projecting lateral fulcral tubercles, triangular in side view; cirri tapering to a point with no opposing spine, of up to 40 segments, 65 mm long. Externally visible portion of each basal flat or slightly arched, weakly or moderately swollen interradially, with lateral portions parallel-sided or tapering, and ends contiguous midradially; sometimes reduced, triangular and separated midradially. Aboral surface of basals with featureless, central depression and with adorally curved and distally expanded pair of interior projections. Radial cavity with delicate aboral calcareous deposit. Most proximal pinnule usually on IIbr17. [details]
