Comparison From all meandroid genera differs in septa built of septal spines, which are the elements typical of the stylophyllids. [details]Description Morphology described in Frech 1890:58. Morphology and microstructure described in Roniewicz 1989:131, pl.39, fig.9,10, pl.40, fig.9-11. [details]
Diagnosis Cerioid, or cerioid-meandroid colonies; in the series septa-of-valley are present; budding intracalicular with lamellar linkages; septa plate-like, often vertically discontinuous (lonsdaleoid); free septal spines at the inner margin; wall septothecal made of peripheral margins of nonconfluent or subconfluent septa; endotheca made of large vesicular or tabuloid dissepiments; microstructure stylophyllid.
