The tapetal layer is partly formed from the sporangial wall and partly as a layer covering the trabeculae.

Sperm sacs generally limited to one or two segments with interior subdivided by trabeculae.

The structure of the corpora cavernosa consists of a strong fibrous coat, the tunica albuginea, from the deep surface of which numerous fibrous trabeculae penetrate the interior and divide it into a number of spaces which are lined with endothelium and communicate with the veins.

Within the trabeculae of the sponge-work blood circulates, and between the trabeculae the water passes,.

In others the peripheral ends of the septa are united only by bars or trabeculae, so that the theca is perforate, and in many such perforate corals the septa themselves are pierced by numerous perforations.
