Latomeandridae Alloiteau 1952
Authors/Creators
Description
Diagnosis. Colonial. Gemmation extracalicinal. Septa costate or biseptal, made of simple or compound trabeculae. Sepral perforations abundant and large. Axial ends of septa not dissociated, anastomosis frequent. Endothecal dissepiments and synapticulae sparse. Columella parietal, weak. Wall synapticulothecal, complete or incomplete.
Remarks. The nominatform of this family, Latomeandra Milne Edwards & Haime, 1849b, was subject to a major revision by Alloiteau (1957, p. 238 and 312 ff). He concluded that all Cretaceous forms assigned to this genus belonged to different groups and transferred them into the genera Koilomorpha Alloiteau, Meandraraea Étallon, Clausastrea d'Orbigny, Vallimeandra Alloiteau, and others. According to Alloiteau, the genus Latomeandra Milne Edwards & Haime is restricted to the Jurassic.
