compressed in the stomodeal axis and “U” shaped; with two large aboral arms that lack oral grooves, chimney-like with flat tops, and extend perpendicularly from the main axis of the body; two tentacles (one sheathed in each respective aboral arm) that lack tentilla; statocyst sunken into a deep cavity in the center of the aboral face of the animal; hermaphroditic gonads developing into four pairs of external globular pockets centered around the statocyst on the aboral face; genital brood cavities may appear as rows of externalized pockets lining the edge of the oral skirt; meridional canals reduced to short diverticula from perradial canals; branching canals present, but rather sparse, showing no anastomoses; lack ctene rows in maturity.
