Taxon description

Emended diagnosis. Oblique inlet gallery leading to a wide, convex-arched and elongated main cavity in the centre of the trace, from which galleries emerge and sharply taper towards the periphery and towards the substrate surface, forming numerous fine connections. Surface texture smooth, except for inlet tunnel, which may bear short and spiny protrusions.
