]. The holotype is a 9.5 cm tall and 6 cm wide colony. Several stems arise from a spreading holdfast but only one branch ramifies in two secondary branches, the others are broken close to the base (Fig. 13A, B) that is partially covered by a sponge. The branching is lateral and irregular, predominantly in one plane. Secondary branches subdivide up to 7 times upwards at small angles. Free end branches reach up to 3.5 cm long. The axis is

and of a light brown colour. The polyps are prominent and distributed longitudinally in two rows at the base of the main branches, but more irregularly and crowded at the upper parts. The calyces are prominent up to 2 mm in diameter and up to 1.5 mm high (Fig. 12B). The anthocodial sclerites are arranged in collaret and points, "en chevron" at the base of the tentacles. The anthocodiae are completely retractile and show an octoradiate star-like arrangement. The coenenchyme and calyces are composed of whitish and reddish sclerites (Fig. 12C). They are mostly warty spindles, straight, curved, and branched, mostly with acute ends, and ornamented with complex tubercles and prickles. These spindles measure 0.21-1.0 mm long and 0.046-0.16 wide (Fig. 13). The anthocodials are warty rods, 0.15-0.20 mm long and 0.03-0.06 mm wide (Fig. 12C). The colour of the colony is pale pink with reddish calyces.
