Abstract

Only two genera of solitary corals, Lophophyllidium and Stereostylus, were known previously from the Pennsylvanian in Ohio. Recent studies of solitary corals from Pennsylvanian strata in Ohio have recorded two genera, Pseudozaphrentoides and Lophamplexus, from the Vanport Limestone of the Allegheny division of the Pennsylvanian. This study enlarges the known Pennsylvanian coral genera and the geologic range of Ohio Pennsylvanian corals.
