Surv., Middle and Upper Devonian, p. 542, pi. 45, figs. 10, 11. Clarke and Swartz's description—'Corallum tubular, prostrate; branching from buds which originate below calyx; dichotomous, or branches anastomosing to produce a loose meshwork. Branches funnel-shaped, attached throughout their length to other organisms, especially to brachiopods. Calyx funnel-shaped, directed upwards. Tab- ulae and septa absent. Diameter of branches at calyx 2 mm.; at base 1 mm.; length of branches 3-5 mm.' Remarks—Aulopora repens is of common occurrence in the Snyder Creek shale and is nearly always on Stropheodonta demissa or Stropheodonta callawayensis.
