Classification
Remarks
According to Reig Oriol (1992, p. 46-47) his newly created genus had a septothecal wall and a styliform columella. However, in the original description of this genus, Reig Oriol also documents areas showing parathecal wall structures and a rather short, lamellar columella. In addition to all other skeletal elements, the genus Parastephanocora Reig Oriol is characterized by skeletal features that are identical to ones in Paraplacocoenia.
Distribution
- Central Europe; Late Cretaceous
