Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| D. Vachard and P. Cozar 2005 | Irregular ramified petaloid fan-shaped skeletal elements consisting of cups ranging in form from platose to erect and exhibiting a plane of symmetry. In an encrusting mode bushes form that include irregular dichotomous tuning-fork shaped internal structures, more or less subdivided, and occupying the total thickness of the skeletal element. Filaments are randomly arranged throughout the wall, except in the encrusting specimens, where they are more or less sub-parallel to the encrustation. The filaments are filled by microspar or diagenetic iron oxides. Wall fibrose hyaline, yellowish, sometimes dark-coloured. |
