The Liassic Linoporella buseri is re-examined, on the basis of an abundant material of reefal origin, originating from the newly described type-locality in Slovenia. It is compared with the Berriasian-Valanginian type-species L. capriotica, studied by BARATTOLO & ROMANO (2005). Both species have three orders of laterals. In L. buseri, however, apart of other, clear cut differences, the tertiary laterals are usually hair-like, occasionally phloiophorous at tip, forming a distal cortex such as in L. capriotica. Consequently, the genus Linoporella is slightly emended, to fit observations made on the two species.
