Description(s)

Radtke et al., 2010:

Diagnosos. Boring system strictly dichotomously branched with entrance at the “basis” of the system. Diameters of the tunnels 4–8μm (after Mägdefrau, 1937)

Knaust, 2012a:

Branched, radial.

Category of architectural design: 2.75. Dendritic and rosetted borings.

Wisshak, 2012:

Emended diagnosis. Strictly dichotomously branching boring system, running at or closely below the surface of osteic substrates. From a single point of entry, galleries of nearly constant diameter ramify without anastomosis and may show slight lateral widening towards the periphery of the trace.
