Colony multilamellar, each layer about 0-3 mm thick, growing as a series of discoidal subcolonies. Overgrowths originate through intrazooecial fission; pseudoancestrulae are autozooids and are followed by a secondary zone of astogenetic change. Organization fixed- walled. Zooidal apertures variably arranged. Autozooids (Fig. 297) of medium size, frontally elongate, on average a little less than twice as long as wide, often hexagonal in outline with distal margin prolonged by the aperture; boundary wall salient. Aperture (Fig. 299) of moderate size, very tall, 1-5 x longer than wide, attaining maximum width between the hinge line and mid-length, rounded distally; apertural rim raised; apertural shelf moder-.

Operculum (Fig. 298) convex; pseudopores num- ber about 18 arranged in a crescent. Terminal diaphragms not observed.
