Tentacle arrangement and morphology fits the description above (Fig. 38), except that small pads could be noticed at the base of the adradial tentacles. The manubrium differed from the smaller medusae described above by being relatively longer (almost ½ of bell cavity) with four evident lips and numerous warts along its margin. Rudiment of gonads can be observed in the basal part of radial canals (Fig. 39 arrows). The other analyzed

Some characters, however, such as tentacle morphology and arrangement and gonads could be clearly distinguished, differing from the described above only by the gonads being slightly more developed in two of them.
