Remarks.

The specimens assigned in Löser et al. (2013c) 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).
