Original description: Gitterschale zweigliederig, die beiden Glieder durch eine tiefe Einschnürung und eine Gitterwand getrennt; das obere Glied rundlich, ringsum mit vielen Stacheln besetzt; das untere schirmförmig, mit starken in Stacheln auslaufeuden Radialbalken, auf denen wieder andere Stacheln stehen. Centralkapsel das erste Glied erfüllend, in das untere mit vier Lappen hinabreichend.
