Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| J. M. Pandolfi 1985 | Coralla are discoidal to hemispherical. Corallites are polygonal, com monly hexagonal, with a mean diameter of 1.7 mm. Corallite walls are variable in thickness, commonly from 0.1-0.2 mm. Walls are usually curved, but may be locally corrugated or straight. Mural pores are rare in corallite walls, abundant in corallite corners, 8-10 in 5 mm, without rims, and commonly 0.1-0.15 mm in diameter. Septal spines may extend up to 0.3 mm toward the center of the corallite and are inclined slightly upward. Tabulae are irregular, commonly arched upward, but also sinuous and horizontal. |
