Catalog entries: Phormocyrtis striata praexquisita
Original description: Cephalis subspherical, quite small, with very small pores all over, bearing a stout conical rod-like apical horn, three-bladed in the proximal part. Collar stricture with four collar pores internally, not defined externally. Cephalic structure has A, V, two L and D; V extends obliquely upward at quite a low angle, two l are incorporated into the stout septal ring. Two L and D are not connected to lateral ribs. Thorax subhemispherical, quite thick-walled, with subcircular pores with well-developed pore frames, slightly rough surface with nodal points. Abdomen inflated pyramidal, thick-walled, with subcircular, large pores, developing three convexly curved keels from the uppermost or median part of the abdomen, constricted aperture, termination ragged.
Remarks on original description: Equivalent to Phormocyrtis striata exquisita (Kozlova) Westberg et al., 1980, pl.1, fig.13.
