This ridge, which separated the proximal and distal parts of the bract, had a variable position, but most often it occurred at the mid-length of the bract, or slightly more distally. At all stages of growth it partially overhung the distal facet, and usually extended to the lateral margins of the bract. The ridge occasionally had a ragged appearance, particularly in the younger bracts. Proximal to the ridge the width and depth of the bract tapered gradually so that, in the oldest bracts, the proximal end formed a rounded point. The distal facet was almost hemispherical in outline, and rapidly lost depth distal to the transverse ridge. On about a third of the bracts there was a distinct lateral cusp on one side (

There was a distinctive basigastral region, which often occupied approximately one-third the length of the gastrozooid, and whose diameter was equal to or greater than its length. The stomach region took on a variety of shapes, varying from cylindrical to spherical. The proboscis region was usually demarcated from the stomach by a slight constriction, but in some cases (

, left) this constriction resulted in a narrow tubular structure that separated the cylindrical stomach from the bulbous proboscis region. There were 12 longitudinal “liver stripes” arranged symmetrically around the proboscis, whose distal mouth region appeared to have been surrounded by darker pigmentation. Although the structure of this gastrozooid is very distinctive, nonetheless it is probably of no systematic value as the gastrozooids of siphonophore species are known to be extremely variable in shape, particularly with regard to the proboscis region.
