Abstract
All specimens assigned by Gorskiy (1932) to the genus Lophophyllum Milne Edwards and Haime, 1850 are revised, redescribed
and reillustrated. The corallite identified by him as a second, specifically indeterminate species of Lophophyllum
is here questionably included in Amygdalophyllum Dun and Benson, 1920. For the reminding specimens two new, unnamed
genera are suggested. ”Lophophyllum” subtortuosum Gorskiy, 1932 belongs to a new, non-dissepimented genus
of an unknown family. A possible relationship between gen. nov. 1, sp. nov. 1 and the new Bashkirian genus from the
Donets Basin (Ukraine) is proposed.
