Original Description

Stichopi1ida (vel Stichocyrtida triradiata aperta), with three lateral ribs or wings, which are prolonged into three latticed, terminal feet. Cephalis with a horn.

The genus Stichopterium has in general the same shell-formation as the nearly allied Stichocampe, but differs from this ancestral form in the fenestration of the three terminal feet. It corresponds, therefore, to Pterocanium among the Tricyrtida.

Etymology:
Greek stichopterium = row-wing"
