DESCRIPTION
Cerioid massive corallum forming small, rounded, pluricentrimetric colonies. The calices are subcircular to polygonal and multiply by extracalicular increase. Radial elements are straight, free or joined, subcompact septa with welldefined but quite irregular trabecular structure producing irregular granules on lateral faces. The inner edge of septa is sometimes swollen or paliform. The septal apparatus is organized in 3 distinct size orders and sometimes the firstorder septa reach the axial styliform columella. Endotheca made of many vesicular dissepiments. Synapticulae not observed. Wall present, of undetermined nature. No holotheca observed.
Calicular diameter: 1.1 to 4.2 mm – Distance between calice centers: 1.5 to 3.5 mm – Number of septa: 16 to 32 – Septal density: 3 to 5 per 1 mm.
SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES
The comparison with the numerous Triassic and Jurassic species of the genera cited above is still to be done.
