Larger branches with axis often tending to be flattened at right angles to plane of fan; in older colonies, smaller branches can bend and grow perpendicular from the fan. Polyps prominent, low, wart-like, non-retractile; coenenchyme thick between polyps. Sclerites of polyp tentacles small rods; below anthocodiae, sclerites large and bow-shaped, in angled double rows (chevrons), forming eight marginal points, forming strong collaret; tentacular operculum distinct. Sclerites of coenenchyme in two distinct layers, mostly spindles (coarse or densely warted), small capstans, with some clubs or discoidal forms.</paragraph>
