Original Description

Cephalis multilobate, with four cylindrical curved tubes conical at their wider base, corresponding to those of the preceding species and to the four spines of Cortina. The odd occipital lobe is of about the same size as the anterior part of the shell, which is cleft into three pairs of roundish lobes, one pair of anterior larger frontal lobes, and two pairs of smaller lateral buccal lobes. Pores very few and minute.

Size:
Length of the shell 0.11, basal breadth 0.07.

Editors' Notes
There was no illustration of this species in Haeckel (1887)
Although Haeckel does not explicitly assign Cannobotrys tetracanna to the subgenus Cannobotromma, it is clear from the discussion of the genus Cannobotrys that Haeckel intends this assignment.[comment from RadWorld database]
