Clarkiella

Heding and Panning, 1954

1 species

Small dendrochirote holothurians with 15 tentacles. The podia are regularly spread over the body. The calcareous ring is compact; the radialia have short, irregular tails. The posterior of the interradialia is deeply cut into, by this they are perceived as forked tails. The calcareous bodies have regular towers with perforated basal plates and two columned attachments in the body wall. There are rosettes in the introvert. (Heding & Panning, 1954)
