| On the top of the head an elegant crest of six elongated, recurved, clavate feathers, of which the webs are deflected. |
| Apart from size, the two specimens agree in all respects with the possible exception of the disposition of the clavate laterals. |
| The stem is stout, even, or much enlarged at the base so that it is clavate. |
| Thalli had articulate fronds, clavate branches, and extreme branch constriction. |
| The stem is nearly cylindrical, gradually enlarging below so that it is clavate, nearly hollow or stuffed with loose threads. |
| Appressoria are few in number, 6.5-11 x 4.5-7.5 µm in size, clavate to circular and light to dark-brown. |
