The sides of the test are almost vertical, the actinal side almost flat. The periproct is sitiiated near the abactinal side, in a slight furrow. The ambulacra ave very little deepened. — The j'oung specimens are somewhat more egg-shaped, bnt the posterior end is high as in the larger specimens, the ontline in profil being niainly the same; only in the specimen of 3''' length the posterior end is yet rather sloping, the anal opening being very near the apical system.
