The sample illustrated in Fig. 4 had been previously cut and polished to reveal the three-dimensional structure of L. carbonaria, so that both TS and VS views are visible in one specimen. The sample is orientated the correct way-up, showing the apparent upward-branching nature of the pillars (red arrows). a Overall view of the sample; b Enlargement of the central part showing the pillars as lighter-coloured dots in TS and as thick lines in VS.
