Comparison The genus differs from other cerioid and cerioid-meandroid Triassic corals in small corallites with pennular septal micromorphology. [details]

Diagnosis Cerioid and/or meandroid. Increase intracalicular without linkages between centers. Radial elements of septal type. Internal septal edges free or temporarily giving origin to a solid columella. Septal faces covered with pennules which may form menianes. Endotheca dissepimental. Intercorallite wall built of peripheral margins of alternating septa of adjacent corallites. Holotheca present. [details]

Remark The name Elysastrea was applied by diverse authors in the literature to different corals. [details]
