Biology:Diagoniella

From HandWiki

Diagoniella is a genus of sponge known from the Middle Cambrian Burgess Shale.[1][2] 128 specimens of Diagoniella are known from the Greater Phyllopod bed, where they comprise 0.24% of the community.[3]

Several specimens previously assigned to Diagoniella by Rigby (1983)[4] may have instead belonged to Polygoniella as per Del Mouro et al. (2024).[5]
