Catalog entries: Lychnocanoma parallelipes
Original description: Cephalis moderate in size, semi globular in outline with a long apical horn. Apical horn, simple, unbladed, and its length being 1.5 times to twice as long as cephalic diameter. In most specimens numerous short spines arise on the cephalis. Collar stricture indistinct because o f heavy silicification accompaniedby numerous short spines. Thorax conical, thick, hexagonally framed. In many specimens, outline of upper thorax fairly flat. Thoracic pores, medium and regular in size, arranged in a quincuncial-longitudinal row. About 9-12 pores on a half circumference. In many specimens, pore bars being equipped with numerous short spines. Thorax termination being a thickened rim. Three feel, arising from terminal thorax, three-bladed, parallel, vertical, straight or slightly curved with outwardconvexity. The dislance between distal pinpoints of two feel usually shorter than the width of thorax.
