The growth of stromatoporoid bioherms appears to have been influenced by tectonic activity. Many structurally positive areas, such as the Billings nose and the Nesson anticline in North Dakota and the Poplar dome and Sweetgrass arch in Montana, have stromatoporoid biohermal accumulations. 2, record 1, English, - stromatoporoid%20bioherm

Les stromatoporoïdés (on dit plus simplement stromatopores) sont des organismes aujourd’hui disparus et dont l’affinité biologique a longtemps intrigué les paléontologues. On les a considérés comme des hydrozoaires, des cnidaires ou même des stromatolites, mais aujourd’hui il y a un assez fort concensus pour les considérer comme un groupe particulier d’éponges, les calcispongiaires, éponges au squelette massivement calcifié. 4, record 1, French, - bioherme%20%C3%A0%20stromatopores
