renders an attempt to study it unsatisfactory in many respects. The bell 
appears to have been about 200 mm. wide, exumbrella finely granular, with a 
central dome as in Cotylorhiza tuberculata. 
There are 8 rhopalia without ocelli (in formalin), and without exumbrella 
pits, being similar in essential respects to those of Cotylorhiza tuberculata. 
The rhopalar lappets are short and pointed. There are about 8 irregularly 
spaced, bluntly pointed, large velar lappets in each octant, and deep furrows 
between them extend radially inward over the exumbrella, as in C. tuberculata. 
The velar lappets vary in length, but the largest are about twice as long and 
twice as wide as the ocular lappets.

The circular muscles occupy the entire zone of the subumbrella beyond the 
arm-disk. They are broken in the 8 principal radii, and unlike C. tuberculata 
there are no radial muscles. 
The arm-disk is about 100 mm. wide, the perradial columns being each 36 
mm. wide. The subgenital ostia are much larger than in C. tuberculata, but 
they were so mutilated that one can not state their exact size, which appears, 
however, to be nearly that of the perradial columns themselves. The speci- 
men having been cut into pieces, we can make no statement concerning the 
condition of the subgenital porticus.
