OVICELL ENDOZOOECIAL Genus MENIPEA Lamouroux, 1812 (Emma Busk, 1852) The ovicell is endozooecial. The zoarium is articulated; the segments are short, narrow proximally, formed of 2 to 5 zooecia. There arc spines and a frontal avieularium. The lateral avieularium is attached at the level of the proximal portion of the opesium.
