Original description: Protoplast globose, ca. 8 µm diam. containing two plastids; flagellar length uncertain but not less than 20 µm with a haptonema shorter but able to coil. Scales dimorphic: cylinders on the outer scales up to 16 µm long x 0.5-0.7 µm wide, breaking readily transversely, thin-walled, slightly widened basally and each attached inframarginally to a flat, rimmed, base-plate; plate-scales of the underlayer very numerous, circular in outline, ca. 0.6-1.0 µm diam. but with a few smaller ovals, all rimmed, with an additional infra-marginal ridge conspicuously raised on the distal face and visible through the scale on the proximal face. Patterning on plate-scales and the base-plates of cylinders otherwise similar, consisting of radial ridges arranged in quadrants round a cruciform central thickening, visible from both surfaces but the distal surface of the rim apparently patternless.
