Abstract
    Ten species belonging to the genera Hexagonaria GÜRICH, 1896, Aristophyllum BULVANKER, SPASSKY & KRAVTSOV, 1975, Phillipsastrea D'ORBIGNY, 1849, Frechastraea SCRUTTON, 1968, Scruttonia TCHEREPNINA, 1974, Peneckiella SOSHKINA, 1939 and Trapezophyllum ETHERIDGE. 1899 including T. roharti n. sp. are described and figured. This material comes mainly from the Boussu-en-Fagne Member and the Neuville Formation exposed at Frasnes, Boussu-en-Fagne and Nismes. The geological surveys emphasize interesting lateral facies variations close to the second and third levels of Frasnian bioherms. The correlations with the Philippeville Massif are also considered. The investigated fauna shows strong affinities with that from the Boulonnais in France and the Holy Cross Mountains in Poland.
