Abstract

Dissepimented rugose corals are frequent in the Sierra del Castillo Unit (Guadiato Area, Ossa Morena) which is composed mainly of Viséan limestones. Aulophyllid corals from Sierra del Castillo, Sierra de la Estrella (both near Espiel, Córdoba) and Antolín (near Peñarroya, Córdoba) have been studied. Ten species belonging to the genera Aulophyllum, Auloclisia, Clisiophyllum, Axoclisia, Dibunophyllum, Arachnolasma, Koninckophyllum and Amygdalophyllum have been described. The genus Axoclisia is for the first time described in Europe. The microstructure of all species is described in detail
