Small to medium sized dendrochirote holothurians with 20 tentacles in two circles (15+5). The podia are spread over the radii and interradii. The calcareous ring has forked tails that are made of a few pieces. The calcareous body towers have low attachments which in individual types are overcome by beginning involution.
