Description(s)

Voigt & Soule, 1973:

Diagnosis: Terebripora (?) with a network of long straight stolons branching simultaneously on both sides at regularly spaced intervals, forming an angle of about 80 degrees. The lateral branches start near the midregion of the zooecia. Zooecia very long and stout, subcylindrical, parallel to the stolons, placed relatively close together, separated by a distance less than the zooecial length.
