Abstract

Specimens of Pseudoclimacograptus marathonensis sp. nov., preserved in relief, from the Ordovician of Marathon, Texas, are described. An account of a series of sections of the proximal end is also given. The material is compared with the compressed syntypes and other specimens of Amplexograptus Confertus (Lapworth), with which the new species had been confused.
