The specimens assigned in Löser et al. (2013 c) to Paramontlivaltia ruvida belong to Trochophyllia aprutina . Both species are similar in their number of septal cycles but T. aprutina has a larger corallite diameter (13–15 mm) compared to T. ruvida (8–11 mm).

Other occurrences.

Aptian to Santonian of the Central Tethys ( Italy, Greece, Austria).
