Diagnosis Feracrinus with relatively narrow arm base (ratio of upper radial width to Br1 width 1.8 to 2.7). Brachial width decreasing progressively from proximal to distal arm. Brachial pairs and isolated brachials without conspicuous constriction midway between muscular articulations. Ornamentation variable, brachial without wing-like lateral projections. Beyond Br4, first brachial with two muscular articulations usually from Br11 to Br15, rarely at Br7 or 9, series of more than two successive muscular articulations appearing usually between Br16 and Br26, very rarely before Br11. Proximal part of genital pinnules with fragile H-shaped plates or only one row of lateral plates on each side. Tegmen never inflated with conspicuous ridges between oral cone and arm, up to 15 tegminal plates per interradius, orals well developed, anal cone lower or slightly higher than oral cone. Ratio of height to maximum diameter of aboral cup 1.0 to 1.2, ratio of cup height to radial height 1.3 to 1.8, ratio of upper radial ring diameter to upper basal ring diameter 1.26 to 1.47. Basal fused or basal ring with one to three sutures. Proximalmost stalk diameter up to 5.2 mm. Juvenile columnal symplexies with 6-7 crenular units of 1 short crenula. In larger specimens, columnal symplexies with 7-10 crenular units of 2-3 crenulae; beyond minimum stalk diameter, symplexies with regular radial crenulae becoming irregular more distally; typical syzygies with labyrinthic concentric pattern in distal stalk. [details]
