Descriptions and remarks

Remark: Long, sinuous to contorted galleries with two or more apertures.


Diagnosis: Long and wide cylindrical galleries excavated parallel to the surface of the valve with dichotomic bifurcation (Santos et al., 2003)


Diagnosis– (After Bromley & D’Ales sandro, 1983, p. 293.) “Long, cylindrical galleries having two or more apertures, running through the substrate sinuously or in irregular contortions. Galleries may run parallel in contact with each other in pairs, with or without fusion. Loose or tight loops may occur; the limbs of these may be connected by a vane or form a pouch.


Unbranched, winding.
