Original Description

Das Kieselgehäuse besteht aus 9 zarten, stielrunden Balken, welche in ihrer Lage den Kanten eines gleichseitigen dreikantigen Prisma entsprechen. In der Mitte des Gerüstes liegt die kugelige farblose Centralkapsel, von welcher aus rings die Pseudopodien ausstrahlen und durch die fünf grofsen Lücken des Gehäuses vortreten.
[Siliceous structure composed of 9 delicate, round pedonculate beams, corresponding to the sides of a triangular prism with similar sides. In the middle part of the structure there is a globular, transparent, central capsule, surrounded by pseudopodia and outgrowing from the five large openings of the skeleton. (In German. Translated by J.P.C.)]
