Colonies of creeping chains of discrete zooids or kenozooids, with scattered erect series. Zooids expand from a narrow tubular proximal part to a domed central part with an oval frontal opesia. Zooids are poorly calcified; budding of zooids may be from the distal margin of the zooid or from the proximal side of the opesia. Brooding is in a bivalved ovicell distal to a specialised maternal zooid.
