Catalog entries: Trypanosphaera trepanata

Original description: Shell regular spherical, with regular circular pores of nearly equal size, at unequal distances, one to four times as broad as the bars. Eight to ten pores on the half meridian. All the pores prolonged into short cylindrical tubuli about as long as broad, armed on the external mouth with an elegant coronal of twenty to thirty straight bristle-shaped, parallel teeth.

Diameter of the shell 120 to 140µm, of the pores 15 to 20µm; length of the tubuli 20µm.
Remarks on original description: Haeckel listed Trypanosphaera trepanata under the subgeneric name Trypanosphaerula, but did not include the subgeneric name in the species name.
[Synonymized with Acrosphaera murrayana (Haeckel) by Nigrini and Caulet, 1992, p.144]
