DESCRIPTION
Subcylindrical solitary coral, subcircular and slightly bilobate in outline. Septa pennular, perforate, straight, free or joined with discontinuous meniana on lateral faces. Distal edge ornamented with small regular trabecular teeth. Axial zone with a restricted fossa and maybe trabecular projections of septa in depth. The corallum is wrapped into an epitheca s.l. of unknown nature. Endotheca made of rare dissepiments. Synapticulae present. No bilateral nor hexameral symmetry observed.
Calicular diameter: 12 mm – Number of septa: approximately 96 – Septal density: 8 per 2 mm.
SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES
Trocharea sp. 2 differs from T. cupuloides Fischer, 1969 and T. sp. 1 by its smaller dimensions and its higher septal density.
