FIGURE 2. Hincksina synchysia n. sp., holotype (MNHN-IB-2017-782), note that fragments of other organisms cover the surface of this unbleached specimen, some of which may be confused with oral or mural spines. A. Autozooids. B. Oblique view on auto- and ovicellate zooids to show the inclined rostra in some of the avicularia. C. Close-up of two autozooids and an avicularium, note the thin band of nodular cryptocyst in the lower left of the central zooid. D. Two zooids with ovicells produced by the distal avicularium at the far left, the three remaining ovicells are produced by the proximal gymnocyst of the distal autozooid, and one avicularium with a relatively pointed tip at lower right; note the nodular cryptocystal rim in the lower left of the central zooid. E. Close-up of an ovicell. Scale bars: A, B, D, 200 µm; C, E, 100 µm.
