Taxon description

Wisshak et al., 2019a

Microboring; substrate osteic; tracemaker invertebrate?

Wisshak, 2017

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.
