Entobia laquea Bromley et D’Alessandro, 1984
Bromley & D'Alessandro, 1984
Diagnosis: A camerate entobian composed in mature stages of networks of small chambers arranged in several tiers subparallel to the substrate surface. The chambers, variable in shape, taper abruptly near the constrictions that separate them from neighbours. They are organized in short, more or less arcuate chains that encircle small spaces in a way that resembles lace. The apertures, circular in shape, rarely fused, are small, numerous and distributed irregularly. Phase A well represented by branched exploratory threads that anastomose early to produce a slender network. Furthermore, phase A is usually present at the periphery, even in mature specimens. Phase B is greatly reduced or absent, the enclosed meshes passing almost directly into phase C. The most characteristic growth phase of the ichnospecies is C.
