d.d.) the primary disc plates are a different texture to other scales—they are similar to the radial shields and therefore stand out. Radial shields and interradial areas separated by many small oval scales. Radial shields large. Genital slits slightly longer than the first arm segment, with bordering papillae. Oral papillae block-like, not pointed, and not separated. Oral shield varies from oval to lemon-shaped. Dorsal and ventral arm plates large and throughout the arms. Three, occasionally 4 pairs of exposed tentacle pores, with 2 or 3 scales on the first pores. 6-3 very small arm spines.
