Adds to his previous description in Das Tierreich - Graff L v 1905 (citation) p 12, largest was 0.6 mm long, some entirely lack the violet color. Yellow pigment is in solution as well as in granule. Granules give a darker more intense color. Graff L v 1911 (citation)- reports from Woods Hole, Massachusetts, USA.
