Le mot «bioherme» désigne un corps lenticulaire, bioconstruit, souvent encaissé de sédiments de nature différente. Ce terme s'oppose à «biostrome» qui désigne un corps bioconstruit stratifié, non lenticulaire. Les biostromes se différencient des bioaccumulations ou lumachelles par le caractère constructeur des organismes présents et leur faible transport. 1, record 1, French, - bioherme%20%C3%A0%20phyllo%C3%AFdes
