Granules in some areas have been removed and on some proximal plates, are lost, leaving shallow convexities on the plate surface. Where granules are entirely absent from plates, surface weakly convex to flat. Madreporite irregular in outline, flat but appressed against a strongly convex plate. Anus centrally present, flanked by four ovoid to irregularly round plates, each covered by easily abraded granules. MCZ 162844 did not show pedicellariae in contrast to MCZ 162556 which showed several on the abactinal surface.
