Description(s)

Wisshak, 2017:

Emended diagnosis. Branches with nearly constant diameter diverge from the main trunk, spreading and bifurcating radially in straight or slightly curved lines, adhere closely to the substrate surface and do not anastomose. They have smooth and rounded surfaces and rounded, rarely pointed tips.
