Original Description
Inner cortical shell with six to eight chambers of different size and form. Both proximal chambers kidney-shaped, with five to six transverse rows of subregular, circular, hexagonally framed pores, twice as broad as the bars. All following chambers cap-like, the distal somewhat smaller; their pores much smaller, irregular, roundish; only at the base of each chamber a circle of ten to twelve large square pores. Middle cortical shell cylindrical, in the equatorial zone a little constricted, hemispherical at both poles, with irregular delicate network of roundish, polygonal meshes. Outer cortical shell of the same form as the middle, but with a very delicate and quite irregular network of polygonal meshes. Commonly this outer mantle is incomplete, and sometimes interwoven in a spongy manner with the middle (or also with the inner). Surface covered with many irregular, thin, bristle-like spines. Both medullary shells lenticular. (May be considered in a phylogenetic and ontogenetic sense as a further developmental stage of Desmocampe aphrodite and Ommatocampe nereis, Pl.40, fig. 10.)
Size: Length of the six-chambered inner cortical shell 0.24, of the middle 0.3, of the outer 0.36; greatest breadth of the first 0.08, of the second 0.12, of the third 0.16; pores of the first (on an average) 0.005 to 0.02, of the second 0.003 to 0.015, of the third 0.01 to 0.05; bars corresponding 0.005 or 0.003 or 0.001.
