The shape of the eleozooidal aperture is very characteristic in Reptomultelea filiozati and enables immedi- ate distinction from most other species of the genus. Only R. pegma sp. nov. (see p. 85) and R. scanica sp. nov. (see p. 96) have similarly broad eleozooidal apertures, but both species are readily distinguished from R. filiozati by other means ( R. pegma has oblique autozooidal apertures with wide apertural shelves, and R. scanica has autozooidal apertures which occupy a significantly greater proportion of the frontal surface than in R. filiozati). According to Prof. E. Voigt, this is a rare species. It is known to occur with certainty only in the Coniacian of the Fecamp area of Seine-Maritime in northern France, although the Voigt Collection in Hamburg contains a possible example (un-numbered) from the Coniacian of Villedieu.
