Description(s)

Wisshak et al., 2018:

Diagnosis. Radiating and ramifying system of club-shaped segments that gradually widen from a thin filament into a distal node. Below the initial point of entry into the substrate, a stalked central cavity of slightly larger dimension and depth of penetration is developed, from which several subsequent segments emerge.
