Diagnosis Corallum solitary and colonial (up to 40 corallites), always attached to a gastropod or scaphopod shell inhabited by a sipunculid worm; synapticulotheca ridged; Pourtalès plan present; paliform lobes may be present; columella spongy; azooxanthellate and zooxanthellate, depending on depth. [details]Remark This genus and family were monographed by Cairns (2001), which included a phylogenetic analysis based on morphology. The three species, one of which has a fossil record, are best described and discussed by Hoeksema and Best (1991). [details]
