In most adult specimens these tips and even the more distal portions of the webbed regions are abruptly decollated. Suckers small, regularly alternating in two very widely spaced rows, save the basal three which are in a single row and notably larger than any of the remainder except those on the ventral arms which are greatly elevated, cylindrical in shape, much fewer in number, and the rows less widely interspaced. Except at the base the suckers of the four dorsal arms are numerous, much reduced in size, little elevated, and with very small openings; they soon become entirely rudimentary and suddenly crowded laterally.
