Ethmorhabdus

Classification: ntax_mesozoic -> Podorhabdales -> Axopodorhabdaceae -> Ethmorhabdus
Sister taxa: Podorhabdus, Hemipodorhabdus, Axopodorhabdus, Tetrapodorhabdus, Hexapodorhabdus, Octocyclus, Octopodorhabdus ⟩⟨ Dodekapodorhabdus, Perissocyclus, Teichorhabdus ⟩⟨ Cribrosphaerella, Ethmorhabdus, Nephrolithus, Psyktosphaera ⟩⟨ Cribrocorona

Distinguishing features:
Parent taxon (Axopodorhabdaceae): Regular placoliths; central-area, with cross-bars or perforated plate; often with tall, hollow spines.
Distal shield elements non-imbricate V-units; proximal shield and inner cycle formed from R-units. Rim often appears beaded in LM
This taxon: Elliptical, narrow rim; central area wide, spanned by multiperforate net, with or without axial cross and spine.

Daughter taxa (time control age-window is: 0-800Ma)
				Ethmorhabdus anglicus Small (4-6 µm) Ethmorhabdus with two cycles of relatively large perforations (20-30 in total).
				Ethmorhabdus crucifer Medium (5-8 µm) Ethmorhabdus, with prominent axial cross bars as well as net.
				Ethmorhabdus gallicus Medium (7-9 µm) Ethmorhabdus with finely perforate net.
				Ethmorhabdus hauterivianus Large (8-12 µm) Ethmorhabdus with finely perforate net, outline often irregular, spine absent
				Ethmorhabdus sp. Specimens not identified to species level
