Dictyocoryne truncatum

(Ehrenberg)

Very similar to Dyctiocoryne profunda (and probably synonymous with it: intergrading specimens are very common); differs in having much broader arms and usually a well developed patagium (spongy shell 4; spongy shell 5). Length of arms (from center of shell): ca. 130 µm.
