Basal ring hexagonal, with four ovate gates (two smaller jugular and two larger cardinal pores); its four lateral corners prolonged into four curved thorny lateral feet (two anterior larger pectoral, and two posterior smaller tergal feet). This species may be regarded as a commencing Hexaspyris or Liriospyris.
