Original Description

Cenodiscida with two radial spines on the margin of the disk, opposite in one equatorial axis.

The genus Stylodiscus opens the series of the Trochodiscida or of those Cenodiscida in which the thin margin of the hollow lenticular disk is armed with a number of solid radial spines, situated in its equatorial plane. Stylodiscus is at the same time the most simple form of the Stylodiscida, or of the numerous Discoidea (belonging to different families) in which the disk bears only two spines, opposite in one equatorial axis. Hitherto only two species of this genus have been observed, but they seem to represent two different subgenera.

Etymology:
Greek stylodiscus = disk with styles"
