Genus EOCOMOSERIS Melnikova, Roniewicz and Loeser, 1993 View in CoL

Type species. Eocomoseris gurumdyensis Roniewicz, 2011 nom. nov. pro Eocomoseris ramosa Melnikova, Roniewicz and Loeser, 1993 View in CoL , by original designation.

Remarks. The genus Eocomoseris was originally only described with one Cretaceous species. Later revisions of type material revealed that there exists another two formally described species. The distinction of species is difficult because the principal characteristic – the distance of the corallite centres – varies within one colony. The material presented here is not well enough preserved to establish new taxa. For the distinction of the four species in the study area see Table 22.
