). Conspicuous, opaque, intensively golden-yellow colour of stomach, radial canals and marginal bulbs, colour fading in peripheral regions of radial canals; colour is partially preserved in alcohol. Stomach wide, up to half the diameter of the subumbrellar diameter, shallow, base irregularly starshaped, turning into basal stomach extensions which taper radially and branch irregularly 0 to 3 times and changing gradually into 30 to 40 radial canals which all reach the circular canal, radial canals very short. Gonad tissue (gametes) could not be seen in the preserved material, thus animals likely not reproductive. About 24 to 38 tentacles, long, contracted tightly coiled, their bulbs ovoid, clearly separated from rest of tentacles. Marginal bulbs positioned independently of radial canals. Usually only one cordylus between pairs of tentacles, also in younger individuals, sometimes cordylus on a marginal bulb without tentacle. Small, brown ocellus on base of adaxial side of bulb or on radial canal at attachment sites of cordylus. On aboral side of manubrium the cross-like marks of an original state with only four radial canals can be seen (
