11.2 in calicular diameter, 24.5 mm in height, and 5.3 mm in greater scar diameter. The GCD:LCD ratio is 1.4-2.2; the H:GCD is 1.0-1.4; the GSC:GCD is 0.19-0.26, with the GSD up to 6.9 mm in length. One pair of very short (rarely more than 1 mm long) and often broken and worn thecal edges spines occur near the basal scar; another pair often is present more distally. The thecal faces bear low ribbing corresponding to the C1-3. The corallum, although worn, sometimes has a blackish color. The septa are arranged in five cycles: S1-3>S4>S5, mature coralla having 96 septa. The lower axial septal edges are highly sinuous, and merge into a rudimentary elongate columella. The upper outer septal edges are not notched. The fossa is deep and narrow, although almost all coralla examined were partially damaged, making observations of the septa and fossa tentative.

It is small, only about 4.1 mm in height with a circular attached pedicel 2 mm in diameter, and a distal calice 5-6 mm in greater diameter corresponding to the scar diameter of the anthocyathus. It has three cycles of septa.</paragraph>
