The original colony clearly had at least one main branch with a few short side branches, although they appear to be broken in places and the holdfast is missing (

and this is confirmed here. It appears from Nuttings figure that there are some anastomoses present in the colony, with possibly two loops identifiable. However, considering Nutting and Stiasny do not mention any anastomoses, and Verseveldt specifically says “there are no anastomoses” the colony loops are considered an artefact of the figure. According to Nutting there were six branches emanating from all sides of the main branch and the calyces were present on all available parts of the colony. Nutting states that “the calyces are irregularly distributed on three sides of the proximal parts of the stem and branches and on all sides of the distal parts of the colony”. However, Stiasny and Verseveldt both refute this, finding calyces and polyps on all sides throughout the colony. The fragments examined here have remnants of calyces spread evenly along and on all sides of the branches with up to
