Polyps arranged in whorls, all polyps facing downward in contracted condition. Each polyp covered with three (rarely four) pairs of abaxial body wall scales (i.e., one pair of basals, one or rarely two pairs of medials, and one pair of buccals) and a variable number of pairs of smaller adaxial scales, nonetheless leaving the adaxial face largely naked. Articular ridge not present on basal scales. Paired infrabasal scales often present. Opercular scales keeled on inner surface. Coenenchymal scales thin and imbricate or thick and mosaic in placement, and sometimes prominently ridged.</paragraph>

, which is inconspicuously ridged, and sometimes (rarely) lacks the ridge. This external ridging may help give strength to basal sclerites. The ridge may be single and extend from the base to the tip of the scale (Fig. 1A, B), or partial, occurring only at the base of the scale (Fig. 1C). Or, there may be multiple short ridges occurring in this region of the scale (Fig. 1D). The ridges may be tall or low. This character is relatively easy to observe, but usually requires the removal of a polyp from a whorl, drying the specimen, and then applying a dye to help see the characteristic ridging structure.

Also, specimens of some species that have otherwise three pairs of body wall scales will have occasional polyps with four pairs of body wall scales. This is a fairly easily observed character when using a dissecting microscope.

Modes include: unbranched (Fig. 1J), branching from a common basal coenenchyme or bolus (Fig. 1K, L), sparse equal dichotomous branching (Fig. 1M), equal dichotomous branching (Fig. 1N), and lyrate (Fig. 1O), which is often followed by dichotomous branching. Lyrate branching might be considered as a special case of dichotomous branching in which the outer component of each bifurcation maintains a straight line while the inner branches remain roughly parallel to one another.</paragraph>

This trait is often correlated with having thick coenenchymals as well (see next character). This character is best seen using scanning electron microscopy of individual sclerites.</paragraph>

Coenenchymal scales arrangement and ornamentation: The coenenchymal scales of most species are relatively thin, having the same thickness as a body wall scale, and have edges that slightly overlap those of other adjacent coenenchymal scales (Fig. 2B). But some species have quite thick scales (Fig. 2
