About: Orthothecida

An Entity of Type: animal, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The orthothecids are one of the two hyolith orders. Marek diagnoses the order thus: Conchs with a flat or concave ventral surface — opercula with large, flat cardinal processes but without clavicles – tightly sigmoidal, sediment-filledintestine – helens absent. Sometimes the Circothecidae and Tetrathecidae are split out into a separate order 'Circothecida', which is defined by the bottom surface not being flat, the cardinal processes being pronounced, and a circular rim sometimes showing hints of differentiation into clavicles.
