Above epitheca, costae are poorly defined and very porous, consisting of small, linearly arranged spines separated by very thin, shallow intercostal striae. Corallum white, but tissue of living coral appears to have been purple (pers. comm., C.J. Lawler) or black.

Remaining septa (S45) arranged in a well-developed Pourtalès Plan, S5 adjacent to S1 and S2 always being much larger than those adjacent to S3, but the axial edges of each pair of S5 fusing before their adjacent S4 and this combined septum fusing again with the other S5 pair (or unflanked S4) within the half-system near the columella. Axial edges of S45 coarsely dentate to laciniate, and in the fusion region adjacent to the columella the axial protuberances are so well developed as to resemble columellar elements, giving the impression that the columella is extending outward and upward onto the septa (
