The slightly wider polyparium consists of numerous, vertically oriented, unbranched lobes, 1.0 cm in height. Some polyps arise directly from the bases of the lobes, but most are arranged on catkins bearing 5–10 polyps each that are distributed over the surface of the lobes. The polyps are club-shaped and curved inwards with the oral surface facing the catkin axis; most have the tentacles contracted.
