Help distinguishing what music symbol this is? Possibly a multi-measure rest?
Hi,
I'm a self-taught musician (Soprano/Alto/Teno recorder & piano). I have this score that I was entering into MuseScore so I could access it on my iPad. I've never seen this symbol before. I first thought it might be a multi-measure rest. I entered a multi-measure rest in MuseScore but it only gives one bar. In the image the first staff has two, the second staff has 4 and the third staff has 2. I'm not sure if they are multi-measure rests and if they are how to enter those into MuseScore.
Any guidance and help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

As for entering them, choose the duration from the Note Input toolbar or press 8 for the duration twice as long as a whole note. Enter the note pitches then change the appearance of the note in Inspector (Note, Head group Alt. Brevis).
