In such a case, the structure is exactly the same as the centrally perforated diaphragm of Stenopora. At other times the partition extends only partially around the circum- ference of the cell and appears in sections as a single projecting semi- diaphragm. The typical form of the species is illustrated in figure 152. The regular hemispheric, solid zoarium is made up of a number of distinct. F

As usual in such zoaria, the tubes of these individual layers are placed so nearly on top of each other that they form practically one and the same tube throughout the colony. In figure 154 the zoarium consists of a single layer in which the semidiaphragms are placed opposite each other with considerable regularity. Whenever tabulae of this sort are cut by the tangential.
