337 Triassic Cyrtinoid Spiriferinacean Brachiopods from Western N. America Ocean

337 Triassic Cyrtinoid Spiriferinacean Brachiopods from Western N. America OceanLate Triassic cyrtinoid spiriferinacean brachiopods from western North America and their biostratigraphic and biogeographic implications BAP #337 Cyrtinoid spiriferinacean brachiopods in samples from over fifty Late Triassic marine fossil localities in western North America include examples of three species of Spondylospira Cooper, 1942, one of which (S. tricosta) is new; one new species of Zugmayerella Dagys, 1963; and four new monotypic genera,

including many of the leading American scientists of their times

the Elwood Formation (late Early to Middle Llandovery) of northeastern Illinois

and other bees

the rare species that will let a scuba diver pet them

and provides literature sources for these data

Two suites of specimens from the Texas Memorial Museum and the Philadelphia Academy of Natural Sciences respectively were also examined

and Nitidella caimitana from the Late Miocene Cercado Formation of the Río Cana section

The eighteen known stenuroid genera are reviewed

including two new species Cyclopecten acuminatus and C

They lived in aquatic (marine
