Description. Colony consists of corallites interconnected by narrow stolons, and composed of small corallites budding from upper margin zone of larger corallites. Corallites ceratoid to cylindrical. Largest examined corallite (SAMC _ A 073198) 9.3 x 8.8 mm in CD, and 21.5 mm in H. Epitheca thin, if present. Costae granular, conspicuous throughout corallum, and equal in width. Intercostal striae thin, porous. Corallum white. Septa hexamerally arranged in four cycles according to the formula: S 1> S 2 ≥ S 4> S 3 (48 septa). S 1 - 2 independent, most exsert, and joining columella deeper in fossa with straight axial margins. S 2 slightly less wide than S 1. Higher cycle septa (S 3 - 4) progressively less exsert. S 31 / 3 the width of S 2, and bear laciniate axial margins. In complete half-systems a pair of S 4 meets before S 3 and joins columella as one septum. S 4 axial margins dentate to laciniate. Septa appearing loosely packed, with all septal faces covered with granules. Pali absent. Fossa of moderate depth, containing a spongy columella.
