Descriptions and remarks

Emended diagnosis: Circular to subcircular non-penetrative and penetrative holes bored into osteic substrates. The boring that terminates within the substrate, forms a shallow, bowl-shaped pit. If the holes are deeper, they display a deeper shaft with a rounded to flattened terminus. Penetrative holes usually have straight or convex vertical edges.
