Cyzicus annandalei Daday, 1913 s. lat.

Size: 110 and 125 µm (n=2) polygon number = ~140–150; wh: dw = ~0.3 (biggest polygons) and ~0.25 (small polygons). Egg surface with numerous small but distinct polygons of with rounded angles. Polygon walls thick, stout, rib margins smooth, constricted in the middle in places. Polygonal depressions small with a flat floor. Polygonal floor approximately about 0.4 to 0.5 in proportion to the total surface of each polygon ( Fig.5 A &B).
