Description(s)
Santos & Mayoral, 2006:
Diagnosis. Very shallow depressions, slightly deeper in the central part, initially arranged in short, spiral series that either retain this pattern or develop into uniserial, more or less straight paths. Depressions subrounded in outline initially, and subrectangular to oval-arched in later stages. Outline marked by a very fine, shallow furrow. Depression interior is unornamented.
