Body stellate (R/r=3.48), arms elongate, interradial arcs acute. Pedicellariae absent from abactinal, marginal surfaces. Granules with round to spinose tips, forming continuous cover over abactinal, marginal and actinal plate surface. Superomarginal and inferomarginal series each with a single prominent, conical spine present in series along arm, although two or three per plate in each interradius. Pedicellariae present on actinal surface, paddle or spoon-shaped, numbering 210 on plates adjacent to the adambulacral groove and on the adambulacral plates adjacent to the subambulacral spine. None known on abactinal or marginal surface. Furrow spines, two or three (mostly three), thick, blunt. Subambulacral one, thick, approximately twice the thickness of a furrow spine. Pedicellariae with rectangular valves on most adambulacral plates adjacent to subambulacral spine.

<paragraph id="8B9E2434DD6BFFBEFC96FEFDFA1D8F36" blockId="18.[808,1442,229,1903]" pageId="18" pageNumber="19">Abactinal, marginal and actinal surface covered by granule-invested integument. Individual granules, round to irregularly polygonal, evenly spaced. Abactinal surface mostly obscured by integument, plates concealed. Prominent conical spines abundant except interradially, especially adjacent to superomarginal contact. Large round tubercles present proximally and on central disk region. Angular granules covered with more strongly developed tissue, differing from round granules present elsewhere and on central disk, covered by a thin translucent mucus. No pedicellariae observed. Madreporite weakly inset on abactinal plates, convex. Sulci well developed.</paragraph>
<paragraph id="8B9E2434DD6BFFBEFC96FDBCFA92891F" blockId="18.[808,1442,229,1903]" pageId="18" pageNumber="19">Marginal plates quadrate, surfaces flush with abactinal and actinal plate surfaces. Approximately 2426 plates per arm side, 4852 per interradius, arm tip to arm tip. Each plate with roughly equal dimensions (L=W), surface covered by granules, round to pointed, smooth, evenly spaced, 50200 (mostly 70100) per plate surface. Granular layer appears continuous with those on abactinal and actinal surface, such that they incompletely obscure contact between marginal, abactinal and actinal plates. Superomarginal plates each with a single prominent, conical spine along the upper plate surface adjacent to abactinal plate contact, rising well above the plate surface and taller than those on the abactinal plates. Spine base lacking granules. Inferomarginal plates have 26 similar, prominent, conical spines, interradially decreasing to a single spine along arms. Interradial spines approximately 10% shorter than those on arms, clustered on plate centre rather than upper edge. Variably, some distalmost inferomarginal plates lack spines. Shallow grooves present between superomarginal and inferomarginal plates. No pedicellariae observed.</paragraph>
<paragraph id="8B9E2434DD6BFFBEFC96FB66FAED8804" blockId="18.[808,1442,229,1903]" pageId="18" pageNumber="19">Actinal surface covered by 715 (mostly 810) irregularly polygonal granules encased in a translucent, very thin skin or mucus. Abactinal plates polygonal to quadrate, present in 35 series, of which only one or two extend completely onto the arms. Granules abundant and continuous, plate boundaries weakly defined. Pedicellariae, paddle-shaped, alveolar, present only on 210 proximal actinal plates adjacent to adambulacral plates along each tube foot groove, 420 per interradius.</paragraph>

Single subambulacral spine, approximately twice as thick as a single furrow spine. Proximal on the plate, a large single tong-like pedicellariae with rectangular valves. Remainder of adambulacral plate surface adorned with 47 pointed to blunt, irregularly polygonal granules, with a single large tubercular granule adjacent to the subambulacral spines.</paragraph>

Oral plate surface with large blunt subambulacral spines corresponding to the furrow spines, similar in appearance to those on other adambulacral plates. Oral plate surface with 46 (mostly five) polygonal granules, quadrate in cross-section on either side edge of the diastema between oral plates in each interradius. Polygonal granules, low, blunt, 24 on remainder of oral plate surface. Thin, membranous skin similar to those elsewhere covering oral plates.</paragraph>
