). The figured specimen is a fragment of a 20 cm tall and 22 cm wide colony with a thin, 6 cm diameter holdfast attached to a rock. The branching looks mostly dichotomous and starts close to the base (Fig. 5 [5]). The branches are closely placed and divergent, they subdivide at small angles and up to 6 times. All branches are about the same diameter with slightly tapered ends. Undivided terminal branches are short. The axes are brown at the base, and light yellow at the branchlets. The coenenchyme is granulose and brittle. The calyces are all around the branches, close together. They are mostly standing perpendicular to the branches, closer together and inclined upwards, at smaller angles, at the upper branchlets (Fig. 5[6]). They are tubular and elongated, up to 1.5 mm long with truncate tips. There is not enough information about the sclerites. They are straight or curved warty spindles reaching up to 1.2 mm long. They are yellow and seem asymmetric, perhaps unilateral spinose as for the genus, but from the drawings it is difficult to tell (Fig. 5[7, 8]). The colour of the colony is light brown.
