Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
C. W. Merriam 1974Bethanyphyllum has thin, commonly
rather wavy septa which may be slightly thickened toward the axis. Tabulae varying from straight, wide, and nearly complete to large and small tabellae. More continuous straight tabulae and larger tabellae bound the bigger longitudinal gaps. The dissepimentarium has several columns of rather small and steeply inclined dissepiments. The fossula is generally unrecognizable in mature growth stages.
