Diagnosis Calometridae with radials separating adjacent primibrachs very narrowly or not at all. As many as 20 arms. Secundibrachs 2. Brachitaxes distal to first primibrach widely separated; ossicles without lateral extensions. Second and third pinnules longer than genital pinnules. [details]Taxonomy Some specimens of Neometra multicolor, including the holotype, have very narrow interradial extensions, and adjacent first primibrachs are barely separated, suggesting that Gephyrometra is likely a junior synonym of Neometra.
