Original Description

Shell a regular sphere, with numerous very small pores of equal size and distribution. Twelve to sixteen pores in its half meridian. Bars (between the pores) three to four times as broad as their diameter. Only a small number (two to four) of very long cylindrical tubes, irregularly scattered, nearly as long or somewhat longer than the shell diameter; now quite straight, now somewhat curved. Diameter of the cylinders four to six times as large as that of the pores.

Diameter of the shell 0.1 to 0.12, of the pores 0.002 to 0.004, of the tubules 0.015 to 0.018; length of the tubules 0.08 to 0.16. [dimensions in mm]
