From the Latin ending -oi- des, like, resembling = robusta-\ike. Description. Colony consisting of erect, biserial branches, brownish red in color. Zooids large, elongate, about mm in length by — mm in width, widest distally, tapering somewhat proxi- mally, but more rectangular in shape than those of other species described here. Outer distal angle of zooids sharply point- ed, inner edge may be rounded or slightly pointed. Frontal membrane taking up more than three-quarters of frontal wall, but nonmembranous walls well chitinized and clearly visible in transmitted light. Or- ifice shape faintly visible, but no distinct.
