This has an irregular conical shape, with the tip (or apex) not coinciding with the middle, and is on the outside only adorned by growth lines. On the inside it has pits (or punctae) that branch into four or five canals further to the outside. More recent specimens have been found near New Zealand. As long as no fossils of Vadiviathyris are found dating between the Silurian and the Eocene, this genus can be regarded a Lazarus taxon.[2] References1. ^1 {{cite WoRMS |author=Christian Emig |year=2013 |title=Valdiviathyris Helmcke, 1940 |db=Brachiopoda |id=235167 |accessdate=October 8, 2013}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q4540193}}{{brachiopod-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite journal|first1= Lars E.|last1= Holmer|first2= Leonid|last2= Popov|first3= Michael G.|last3= Bassett|year= 2013|title= Silurian Craniide brachiopods from Gotland|journal= Palaeontology|volume= 56|issue= 5|pages= 1029–1044|url= https://www.academia.edu/4625326/SILURIAN_CRANIIDE_BRACHIOPODS_FROM_GOTLAND}} 3. ^{{cite journal |author=Jeffrey H.
