A NEW TRIASSIC SCLERACTINIAN CORAL FROM THE HIGHTATRA MOUNTAINS (WESTERN CARPATHIANS, CZECHO-SLOVAKIA)

Year, pages: 1991, 157 - 162

A new stylophyllid coral genus, Meandrostylophyllum, is characterized by meandroid colony, extremely reduced septal apparatus, and vesicular endotheca consistuting the main component of the skeleton. Its affiliation to the Meandrostylis phylogenetical stock is discussed. The genus has been found in the coral assemblage from fossiliferous Fatra Formation (the uppermost part of the Triassic sequence in the Krizna Nappe) in the West Tatra Mts.
