From editor or global species database
Diagnosis Cassiduloids with monobasal apical system. Outer column of anterior petals bowed, posterior petals straight or bowed, a and b columns of pore-pairs with equal number of pores; poriferous zone wide; pore-pairs conjugated. Periproct supramarginal or on aboral surface, longitudinal or transverse. Plates framing periproct bent inwards, with adoral plates sometimes forming a subanal shelf. Interambulacrum 5 naked zone wide; pits absent to large. Basicoronal plates usually pitted. Phyllodes small to long; phyllopores uniformly arranged; occluded plates absent, scattered or forming innercolumn. Peristome pentagonal, (rarely) oval. Bourrelets pointed or (rarely) tooth-like, often formed by depression in basicoronal plates. Sphaeridia in open pits near buccal pores or throughout phyllodes. Oral tubercles usually much larger than aboral tubercles. From living species of Eurhodia and Kassandrina: periproctal membrane with one main row of medium-sized plates and many small plates, anal opening on aboral edge. [details]
