Shell ovate, with two deep strictures. Length of the three joints = 2 : 3 : 5, breadth = 2 : 5 : 7. Cephalis subspherical, with a large, straight, cylindrical horn, about as long as the whole shell (in the specimen figured this is broken off). Thorax truncate, conical. Abdomen subglobose, truncate on both poles, twice as broad as the constricted mouth. Pores quincuncial, subregular, circular, twice as broad in the abdomen as in the thorax.
Dimensions.—Length of the three joints, a 0.02, b 0.03, c 0.05; breadth, a 0.02, b 0.05, c 0.07.
Habitat.—South Atlantic, Station 332, surface.

Shell almost ovate, rough, with two slight strictures. Length of the three joints = 2 : 7 : 10, breadth = 3 : 8 : 12. Cephalis subspherical, with a strong, conical horn of the same length. Thorax nearly spherical, with subregular, circular pores of different sizes. Abdomen ovate, truncate at both poles, nearly twice as broad as the constricted mouth, with very large, subregular, hexagonal pores, four to six times as broad as the bars, in three to four transverse, and ten to twelve longitudinal rows.
