Original description: Cellulae non-metabolicae, duo flagella inaequa heterodynamica, haptonemate brevi rigidoque seiuncta, habentes, in cellulis viabilibus interdum paululum flectit, non, autem, retract at. Cellulae necnon spin as longas distinctas, compositione ignota, necnon duo chroma to ph ora parietalia clare flava, necnon nucleum centralem, necnon materiam coacervatam leucosinus coniectam, habentes.

Non-metabolic cells possessing two unequal, heterodynamic flagella separated by a short rigid haptonema which sometimes flexes slightly but which does not retract in viable cells. Cells also possess long distinct spines of unknown composition, two bright yellow parietal chloroplasts, a central nucleous, and reserve material presumed to be leucosin.
