The surface of the cuticle is smooth. The body is colourless, transparent, only the stomach, filled with clods of Chlorophyceae, is greenish blue. These clods reminiscent of the Zoochlorellae are in various degrees digested Chlorophyceae, which serve as food of the animals. The broadly oval head is only a little flattened and it is 31 µm broad. The rostral lamellae are strikingly large, strongly laterally elongated and pointed. Under the lamellae are not developed either sensitive cilia or whirl cilia. The neck is a little more slender than the head (only 26 um), the first neck-segment bears a short dorsal antenna. The trunk is 45 µm broad. The rump passes gradually into the three-jointed foot. The spurs are strikingly long (16 µm), at the base they are inflated, they narrow towards the tips are the tips are curved towards the dorsal side. The toes are long, the middle part is the strongest and it is a little dilated at the end. The ovaries bear only four nuclei.
The body is 270-300 µm long.
The jaws are 18 µm long.
