Shell subspherical, with irregular polygonal pores. Basal plate with three large pores. 

 Columella with two verticils of three ascending lateral branches. Apical horn as long as the 

 columella, three-sided prismatic. Feet of the same form, twice as long, in the distal half with two 

 opposite transverse branches, sword-shaped.

5. Cladoscenium veHicillatum, n. sp. 



Shell campanulate, with subregular square pores. Basal plate with nine pores (three larger 

 central and six smaller distal). Columella with three verticils of three ascending lateral branches. 

 Apical horn and the three basal feet of equal size and similar form, four to six times as long as the
