Diagnosis Heliostylina was defined as a hexameral coral like Stylina in the young stage and a bilateral coral like Heliocoenia in the adult stage. The bilaterality is obtained in some calices by the absence of 4 S3 in lateral sectors. [details]Remark Initially thought as an intermediate between Stylina and Heliocoenia on the basis of the septal insertion, Heliostylina is considered as a junior synonym of Heliocoenia (Roniewicz 1966, 1976). For Zaman (2012) also, Heliostylina represents the normal set of developmental features observed in Heliocoenia. [details]
