Animals attach to the substrate on the left side of their body, usually without incrustations or epibionts. In coral reefs, only the large oral siphon is visible, with white stripes between the lobes; in mangrove roots, the small atrial siphon can be seen on the posterior region. The tunic is semi-transparent, gray or dark gray when alive, with numerous black vessels conspicuous mainly around the siphons. The tunic is cartilaginous, 0.23.0 mm thick, without projections. The body is elongated (2.67.0 cm long without the oral siphon;

The double prepharyngeal groove has projections in the anterior lamina of some individuals; the area between it and the ring of tentacles is smooth, but it may have some small papillae. The peritubercular area is small and the dorsal tubercle aperture is U-shaped with or without curved ends. The neural ganglion is away from the dorsal tubercle, close to the atrial siphon. The dorsal lamina is double anteriorly, single and with toothed margin posteriorly (projections formed by the ends of the transverse vessels). The dorsal lamina passes by the left of the esophageal aperture to the end of the pharynx (2.514.0 mm beyond the stomach). There is a narrow lamina on the right of the esophageal aperture. The pharynx has 5377 longitudinal vessels on the right side, 4968 on the left, and 143316 transverse vessels; it is very pleated, with 57 stigmata per mesh. The primary papillae in the pharynx are bilobed; secondary papillae and parastigmatic vessels are absent.
