Taxon description
Wisshak et al., 2019a
Macroboring; substrate calcareous; tracemaker invertebrate.
Buatois et al., 2017
Category of architectural design: 2.61. U-shaped borings.
Ekdale et al., 1989
Diagnosis: Vertical spreiten boring, in which the individual tunnels that make up the spreite are discrete and not overlapping, except where they join near the top of the limbs at the two ends of the spreite; usually linked as a series of two or more spreiten, giving a festoon aspect to the entire structure.
