REMARKS
So far, this nice dasycladalean alga, described in 1973 by Sokač & Nikler, has seldom been identified in other similar deposits. In some cores from drillings in the Sănduleşti quarry ( Fig. 3 View FIG ), we identified numerous quite well preserved specimens. “ Linoporella ” kapelensis represents the type species of the recently introduced genus Steinmanniporella ( Bucur et al. 2010) as a consequence of the emendation of the genus Linoporella by Barattolo & Romano (2005). The genus was further emended by Radoičić et al. (2009).
All the characteristics given by Sokač & Nikler (1973) can be recognized in the specimens from Sănduleşti. The first-order laterals, tubular in shape, are inclined with respect to the axial cavity; a characteristic well seen in longitudinal and oblique sections ( Fig. 10 View FIG A-D, F, G). They give rise to a bush of four second-order laterals, tubular in the proximal part and enlarged distally. The oblique and transverse-oblique sections ( Fig. 11 View FIG A-F, H, K) show the junction between first-order and second-order laterals, and the number of the secondaries (e.g., Fig. 11D View FIG , lower part). Transverse sections ( Figs 10E View FIG ; 11G View FIG ) show the number of first order laterals in a whorl, as well as their shape (e.g., Fig. 10E View FIG ).
