Chataimulosia

Gymnolaemata - Cheilostomata - Lepraliellidae

Taxonomy
Chataimulosia was named by Gordon and Taylor (1999) [Colony encrusting. Autozooids with a smooth, imperforate frontal shield lacking areolar septular pores. Primary orifice sunken, the proximal rim straight, lacking a lyrula or denticle. Secondary orifice with a median suboral avicularium with crossbar. No oral spines. Ovicell hyperstomial, recumbent, smooth and imperforate with its calcification merging into that of the succeeding frontal shield.].

It was assigned to Buffonellodidae by Gordon and Taylor (1999); and to Lepraliellidae by Gordon and Taylor (2015).
