From editor or global species database
Comparison Like Endopachys but having septa in normal arrangement. [details]Diagnosis Corallum solitary, compressed, asexually budding by transverse division; epithecal bands present; or absent; costae present in some species; septa arranged normally; columella spongy or lamellar; azooxanthellate. [details]
Remark This genus and family were monographed by Cairns (2001), which included a phylogenetic analysis based on morphology. Seven species, four of those fossil. [details]
