REMARK
According to a note by Lesueur, the edges of abactinal surface of the individual are whitish. The holotype is altered and the drawings lack details. The species is tentatively identified here Paranepanthia grandis due to its shape with flat edge and to the oblique orientation of the actinal plates and armamement (see also the website Atlas of living Australia https://www.ala.org.au/, species Paranepanthia grandis (H.L. Clark, 1928)).
