Terminal corona of a single radial tube.
Fig. 3. Auloscena penicillus, n. sp.,	×	200
A single tent-shaped elevation or six-sided pyramid, bearing on the top a brush-shaped radial tube.
Fig. 4. Auloscena flammabunda, n. sp.,	×	400
A single radial tube, with a centripetal free prolongation at the base and a verticil of undulate terminal branches at the distal end.
