Rugosans are an extinct group - they only occur in Paleozoic rocks. The soft parts were sea anemone-like creatures called polyps. The polyps made calcareous hard-part skeletons. Most rugosans were solitary, but some were colonial.------------------------------------Exhibit info.:This unusual, large, twisted horn coral species is apparently common in some formations in the mountainous Guizhou Province of southwest China.------------------------------------Classification: Animalia, Cnidaria, Anthozoa, Rugosa, Stauriida, AulophyllidaeStratigraphy: Shangsi Formation, Visean Stage, Middle MississippianLocality: unrecorded / undisclosed site in Guizhou Province, South China |
