Description A family of Antedonoidea with centrodorsal completely hollow with little if any overhanging oral rim and without interior radial or interradial pockets or pits. Cirrus sockets with concave fulcral bowl surrounding central lumen; proximal facet of first cirral with corresponding large boss. Basals forming thin, complete circlet with large central lumen, each visible externally as pentagonal extension of one of the centrodorsal interradial ridges (or flat strips), often extending laterally as extremely narrow strip in deep subradial clefts; adjacent basals meeting midradially in external view or not. [details]
