The zooecia are distinct, separated by a deep furrow imbricated, quite erect distally, a little transverse; the frontal is small, proximal, concave. The aperture is large suborbicular, somewhat transverse; the peristome is thin, sharp; it bears 4 large distal articulated spines. The trabeculae form an armature in the form of a horseshoe. The ovicell is large, convex, hyperstomial. There is sometimes a small triangular avicu- larium on the frontal. On the inner face the zooecial bases are hex- agonal and ornamented with large tuberosities. Measurements.— . ffta = mm. 7 . jLz = mm. Aperture*;, rt „„ ^ n„ Zooecia\ \la = mm. ilz = mm. Affinities.—This species differs from Chaperia galeata Busk, 1852, in its trabecular armature in the shape of a horseshoe, in the absence.
