Its sclerite form rings that are stacked to produce a widening-upwards conical scleritome.[1] Individual plates have been homologized with the valves of brachiopods, and a relationship with the phoronids is also likely at a stem-group level.[1] Its pointed end terminated in a stub that probably fastened it to a hard sea floor; its open end has been interpreted as a filter-feeding aperture.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{Cite journal | last1 = Skovsted | first1 = C.
