Genus Bounophyllum Chwieduk, 2005
Type species: Clisiophyllum (Dibunophyllum) praecursor Frech, 1885 ; Strunian of Stolberg (Aachen, Germany) = Bounophyllum pomeranicum Chwieduk, 2005 ; uppermost Famennian of Poland.
Emended diagnosis.—Solitary corallum. Axial structure irregular, connected to the cardinal and counter septa in juvenile stages. Major septa long, thickened in the tabularium. Axial ends of septa whirled. Minor septa long. Cardinal septum shorter. Dissepimentarium made of simple interseptal dissepiments. Tabulae incomplete, domed. Modified from Chwieduk (2005).
Remarks.—The genus Bounophyllum was introduced by Chwieduk (2005) for corals previously named Dibunophyllum praecursor ( Frech, 1885) . Dibunophyllum being a Viséan genus with well constrained characters, this name was not suitable for the uppermost Famennian specimens.
