Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
F. Kisielevsky 1969The gyrogonites are ovoidal to prolate in shape. At the summit, the ends of the spirals form five denticles, a structure that is characteristic of the genus. The apical opening is star-shaped. 7-10 generally concave or, to a lesser extent, flat spirals are visible in lateral view. The interspiral ridges are low. Each spiral possesses a distinct double suture. The basal pole is rounded or slightly conical, with a small pentagonal opening. This species occurs in the upper part of the Lower Triassic of the East European Platform (SAIDAKOVSKY & KISIELEVSKY, 1985), the Olenekian of Germany (KOZUR 1974), and the Middle Carnian and Lower Rhaetian of the Polish Lowland (BILAN, 1988).
