, six arms, three larger and three smaller ones, indicating a fissiparous nature. Two arms broken off close to the disk, the others near their tip. Disk interradially deeply incised. Disk and arms covered with thick skin, in which scattered round, low granules are embedded, concentrated on the radial areas. Radial shields not visible, but indicated by granule-covered ridges. Scraping away the skin on one of these ridges proved the existence of bar-like long radial shields, widely separated from each other. No other scales or plates present.
