Descriptions and remarks

Description. Boring network produced by a cylindrical gallery subdivided into U-shaped (7 mm wide and 13 mm long) and S-shaped (4 mm wide and 8–17 mm long) lobes. The inner edges of the limbs are connected by a vane. Lobes are connected to each other, and each lobe is subparallel to its neighbour, but lies in a different plane.
