Dimensions. d (great): 2.5– 4 mm, in areas of intense budding 1 mm or less; d (small): 2.2– 3 mm; s: 24 to around 40.
Description. Dendroid colony; corallite are elliptical in outline; septa nearly equal in thickness, developed in 3 to 5 size orders regarding septal length; columella irregularly parietal, small.
Type locality of species. Eocene of France .
Distribution. Selandian–Tanetian of Iran (this paper; Mount Chatorsh, central Iran; Zagros Zone, southwestern Iran), Eocene of the Czech Republic, England (Brockenhurst Bed, Headon Beds), and France, Upper Eocene of Ukraine.
New material. AH173 (61) (Mount Chatorsh, central Iran); Qs67 (4, 19),?Qs91 (22), Qs93 (34, 38–41) (all from Zagros Zone, southwestern Iran).
Remarks. In having corallites forming meandroid series, the material described from the Eocene of Slovakia by Oppenheim (1914, p. 700 ‒ 701, Pl. 26, Figs. 9 ‒ 12 View Fig ) differs from Lobopsammia and might be related to Stichopsammia Felix. Because the material from the Lower Oligocene of Germany (Reit im Winkel) assigned to Lobopsammia cariosa by Reis (1889, p. 106 ‒ 107, Text— Fig. III) is described as having an axial corallite around which secondary corallites occur, it differs from Lobopsammia and might belong to genera such as Dendrophyllia (see, e.g., Baron-Szabo & Cairns, 2019, p. 4, Fig. 1d View Fig ) or Cladopsammia (see, e.g., Baron-Szabo & Cairns, 2019, p. 9, Fig. 1b View Fig ).
