Edwardsiidae with the column divisible into physa, scapus, scapulus and capitulum, though these regions may be slightly distinguished. Scapus with or without adherent material, without nemathybomes and tenaculi. Tentacles 10-18, the outer longer than the inner. A single, ventral siphonoglyph. Mesenteries as in Edwardsia. Retractors in comparison with those of other Edwardsiidae rather weak. Ciliated tracts may be discontinuous. Curious, ciliated, spherical bodies, nematosomes, containing nematocysts occur in the coelenteron, in which they swim about. Cnidom: spirocysts, basitrichs, microbasic p-mastigophors.
