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.
