Remark Re-study of the holotype of the type species of Pseudoheliastraea Alloiteau in 2009 revealed that it is characterized by: plocoid to (sub-) fasciculate polyp integration; a well-developed perithecal wall, consisting of concentric lamellae; variably developed but mainly lamellar columella; extracalicinal budding; well-developed vesicular exotheca; thus very closely corresponding with the genus Agathelia Reuss. Therefore, their synonmy is suggested. [details]
