 part elliptical in outline and regularly 

 convex; five ambulacral grooves curve 

 spirally outward from an ambulacral 

 orifice within the 

 groove near the 

 mouth , and extend 

 below the summit ; 

 mouth round, sit- 

 uate between two 

 of the ambulacral 

 grooves ; each am- 

 bulacral groove 

 has a suture in the 

 bottom of it, but 

 there is no other 

 evidence of the 

 subdivision of the 

 top into plates ; 

 even the mouth 

 appears as a hole through a solid test; 

 whole surface tuberculated, and each 

 tubercle pierced with a pair of pores.
