Catalog entries: Lychnocanium grande
Original description: Shell large; apical horn short (less than 0.1 length of foot), rodlike, subvertical, distally sharp; cephalis broadly conical (60°), its length about same as apical horn, its basal diameter (shell-neck) 1.4 its own length, and its sides very strongly convex, forming a pointed apex from which horn arises; thorax as a whole subconical (50°), its length about 0.5 that of foot, its lower diameter approximately at level of origin of feet 0.58 maximum diameter, and latter 0.9 length of foot; wide open mouth has a circular, transverse rib, and a flat plate of pore-bearing shell material surrounds it, a continuation from sides of thorax, lateral walls of which are pronouncedly convex; from wide level of shell just above flat, oral plate arise three divergent, nearly straight, three-bladed, apically sharp, basally thick feet; wall of cephalis thinner than that of thorax; surface generally smooth but with vertical, very short, branched, twiglike spines around shell at level of origin of feet; pores of cephalis large, shallow, sub-circular, uniform, and with a narrow basketlike framework, pores of thorax mostly subcircular to elliptical, exceptionally otherwise, 9-10 in a vertical tier and graded in size from largest near lower sides to smallest near shell-neck, about 44 or more around circumference in row near level of origin of feet and fewer above, feet and horn hyaline.
Remarks on original description: [Campbell and Clark here lists the species under the subgeneric name Lychnocanella and include the subgeneric name in the species name.
