Radulichnus

Radulichnus

"Radulichnus" is an ichnogenus of trace fossil which resembles the marks produced by the action of a mollusc's radula on sediment. As an ichnogenus, its classification is based solely on "appearance", and does not necessarily imply anything of the affinity of the organism which produced the trace.cite journal
