Diagnosis. Boring with chamber diameters ranging from 0.5–3mm and depths from 1–5mm. Aperture neck length is variable, and therefore depth is also variable. Branches are bar-like and remain somewhat separated until they widen into bulbs and merge at the ends. They are very long relative to the chamber diameter, making up almost all of the chamber. The centre of primary radial symmetry sits at the base of the aperture neck. Arc length can be highly variable; cross sections look like sections of a circle
