Description With eight oral lobes, a tubular cloacal siphon prolonged as a languet with three lobes, numerous stigmatal rows, and a stomach with five folds, this species resembles Aplidium protectans (Herdman, 1899) and Aplidium amorphatum Kott,1963. It differs in the peculiar shape of its colony lobes, which are seperated from each other almost to their bases, and in its sand-impregnated tunic. The exceptional length of the zooids and the larval structure are also distinctive. [details]
