The syntype RMNH Coel 2344 consists of three encrusting lobed colonies attached to calcareous fragments. The largest syntype is 3 cm high by 5 cm wide, the second 1.5 by 2.5 cm, and the third 2 by 3.5 cm (Figure 29). The finger-like lobes feature non-retractile polyps, some of which are found on the colony base. The polyp body is up to 2.8 mm long and the tentacles are up to 1.0 mm long. The tentacles bear one row of 12-14 pinnules along each of their margins. The short pinnules are closely set, with no space between adjacent ones. The preserved colonies are brown-beige. Sclerites are highly abundant and found in all parts of the colony. Under the light microscope they are ovoid or pear-shaped as fully confirmed by SEM (Figure 30A), measuring up to 0.022 mm in length. Occasionally they are arranged in groups (Figure 30B), but during preparation they tend to dissociate and become sin

. SEM revealed the unique microstructure of the sclerites, which comprise densely packed chip-like microscleres (Figure 30C), giving the sclerite surface the appearance of cement-chip aggregates (Figure 30D).

. The latter study provides a better description of the sclerites as oblong, pear-like or angular in shape, 0.015-0.021 mm in diameter. The light microscopy used in the past clearly could not have revealed the unique surface microstructure of that species (Figure 30D).

In addition, it confirmed the unpublished morphological description of the material which states that the pinnules: "Mostly very contracted, difficult to measure, in one row on each side of the tentacle with 5-12 (6-9) pinnules per row". Hence, the pinnule number corresponds to the original types of both

At 28S rDNA pairwise genetic distances (K2p) among individuals ranged from 0-0.8%, and a group of three specimens from Madagascar (ZMTAU Co 36065, Co 36076, Co 36122) differed from all others by three nucleotide substitutions. There was, however, no significant support for this clade, and no apparent morphological differences between these individuals and others of
