Description Massive meandroid corallum with short sinuous valleys often with 2 or 3 centers. Collines tectiform rather than tholiform with mostly non confluent radial elements and no ambulacrum. Septa of valleys present. Epitheca not observed. Radial elements are compact, free or anastomosed, generally curved septa. Septal ornamentation not well known, small numerous acute granules can be seen on septal faces. Pali absent. Microstructure unknown. Endotheca of vesicular dissepiments. Small fossa in the central zone. Synapticulae possibly present. Wall of unknown nature. [details]
