Description This species is like Bradleya nuda except for its produced anterior margin (neither species has a discrete rim) and different and fewer traces of the reticulum. Reinforcing mural struts are visible next to the ventrolateral carina. A single mural trace connects the posterior of the ventrolateral ridge with the dorsal carina. So far as can be determined the pore systems of the two nude species are the same. The species are smooth and are not foveolate or celate as in B. arata, which also has a small horizontal ridge in the region of the muscle-scar node. The ridge joining the posteroventer with the posterior of the ventrolateral ridge (described for B. nuda) is also present in B. paranuda. [details]

Description This species is like Bradleya nuda except for its produced anterior margin (neither species has a discrete rim) and different and fewer traces of the reticulum. Reinforcing mural struts are visible next to the ventrolateral carina. A single mural trace connects the posterior of the ventrolateral ridge with the dorsal carina. So far as can be determined the pore systems of the two nude species are the same. The species are smooth and are not foveolate or celate as in B. arata, which also has a small horizontal ridge in the region of the muscle-scar node. The ridge joining the posteroventer with the posterior of the ventrolateral ridge (described for B. nuda) is also present in B. paranuda. [details]Diagnosis Like the smooth form Bradleya nuda, new species, this species is almost devoid of any traces of the reticulum. Except for B. nuda and possibly B. proarata, it can be distinguished from all other species of Bradleya by this characteristic. The anterior margin is very well rounded and exceptionally produced. Traces of the reticulum are confined to a murus joining the posteriors of the dorsal and ventrolateral carinae. No eye tubercule is visible and although the species was found in shallow water (23 fathoms); it is presumed to be blind. [details]
