Original Description
Both shells with the same number of pores, exactly corresponding, about twelve on the quadrant. All pores regular or subregular; the inner circular, with elegant six-lobed frames, twice as broad as the bars; the outer hexagonal, with very thin thread-like bars. All corners of the outer and inner hexagons connected by thin, bristle-shaped radial beams. (Similar to Haliomma rhodococcus, Pl. 19, fig. 6; but with smooth surface and regular hexagonal pores of the outer shell.)
Size: Diameter of the outer shell 0.2, inner 0.16, distance of both 0.02; outer pores 0.03, inner 0.01.
Editors' Notes
There was no illustration of this species in Haeckel (1887)
Haeckel listed Liosphaera rhodococcus under the subgeneric name Melitomma, but did not include the subgeneric name in the species name.[comment from RadWorld database]
