Diagnosis: Size about 30–45 μm long and 15–23 μm wide. Elongated globular body, with a rounded and slightly protruding anterior extremity. Peduncle 14–17 μm long and 7–9 μm wide with a longitudinal twist and adhesive disk 8–12 μm in diameter. Pellicle distinctly transversely striated, with 38–42 silverlines. Peristomial disc is about 26–29 µm in diameter, with 11–18 ciliary bands. Multilobulated macronucleus, usually anterior, close to the cell periphery. Missing micronucleus. Found link to intersegmental furrows, near parapodial bases, of annelid, Syllis prolifera .

Remarks: diagnosis according to Álvarez-Campos et al. (2014). According to the authors, when contracted, the posterior and anterior folds cover the contracted part, and this makes it assume an oval shape, with a deep cut containing part of the contracted posterior end.
