Minor septa absent. Columella a simple thickened axial plate ordinarily connected to the counter septum and to the cardinal septum in some eorallites. Dissepimentarium composed of 1 to 3 rows of mostly large inflated dissepiments. Tabulae complete:, horizontal or slightly elevated toward columella, and irregularly spaced 0.5 to 1.25 mm apart.
