| A. Kouchinsky et al. 2009 | Selindeochrea species characterised by internal moulds that can be twisted through several revolutions, and V-shaped grooves between lobes narrowing distally.
DESCRIPTION. Internal moulds twisted anticlockwise, having three lobes with elongated transverse profiles narrowing distally (Fig. 46A, C, E). The lobes are separated by grooves that are V-shaped transversally (Fig. 46A, C) and become less distinct towards the initial part (Fig. 46B). In larger specimens the grooves are W-shaped in cross-section, with a central ridge carrying a median narrow groove (Fig. 46E). Between the lobes growth lines are arched and produce acute angles pointed towards the aperture (Fig. 46G). |
