Cyclonephelium compactum Deflandre and Cookson, 1955, has processes which are generally short and joined to one another, forming lamella like projections arranged either parallel to the margin, or in the form of an irregular network. Sometimes a series of processes are joined by short trabeculae. Size: shell 61-72 µm, processes 5-10 µm, overall 72-87 µm.

Original description: Deflandre and Cookson, 1955, p. 285
The appendages forming the equatorial ornamentation are generally short and joined to one another, forming lamella-like projections arranged either parallel to thr equator of the shell or in the form of an irregular network. Sometimes a series of processes are joined by short traberculae. The surface of the shell is slightly punctate.Dimensions: Shell 61-72 Ám, height of ornament 5-10 Ám, overall diameter 72-87 Ám.
