Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
S. H. Vaziri et al. 2021Convolutubus dargazinensis n. gen. n. sp. is a curved cylindrical non-mineralizing tube consisting of a series of closely spaced transverse annulations characterized by a prominent perpendicular lineation. Tube does not branch, divide, or show any surficial textures. Annulations are split by one (perhaps more) prominent perpendicular lateral longitudinal lineation that runs along the entire length of the tube, dividing the annulae into two sections. When present, longitudinal lineation is typically offset from the center of the tube, resulting in annulae of different sizes on either side of the divide.
