The dorsal cup is perfectly pentamerous, the rays being separated by intorbrnchialH of uniform number and size, and their main divisions by a single large interdistichal. Still more important from a classificatory point of view is the structure of the ventral di.^k, which differs from that of any other known Crinoid, recent or fossil. It is com- of only four rings of largo plates of irregular form, of which the two lower ones completely cover the disk ambulacra, which rre subtegminal, the upper ones forming a long neck or tube enclosing a narrow canal. Not only do the plates of the disk, like those of the do".sal cup, consist of a defi- nite number, but tliey are throughout tliis family unusually large, and their arrangement does not appear to be in accordance with the pentamerous.
