Milaculum

Extinct genus of worms From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The genus Milaculum was erected to contain isolated plates that have since been identified as components of palaeoscolecid worms.[1] They are adorned with regularly arranged humps that recall the arrangement of holes in Microdictyon.[3] The plates are sometimes found in association with palaeoscolecid cuticle.[2]
