. No concentric ridges or furrows exist on aboral disc. The hooklet-bearing plates occur on the aboral periphery of the disc. Each hooklet bears one to three secondary teeth. Except for the hooklet-bearing plates, body is entirely covered by round granule-shaped epidermal ossicles, round or polygonal plate-shaped epidermal ossicles, and cone-shaped epidermal ossicles with one to five terminal projections. Teeth are acute, spiniform. Three to six arm spines are adjacent to each tentacle pore in middle portion of the arms.
