Revision and reassignment of Strophomena cornuta Hall, 1843 (Brachiopoda, Silurian) to Strophochonetes Muir-Wood, 1962
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 May 2016
Abstract
Restudy of Strophomena cornuta Hall, 1843, confirms that it belongs to the superfamily Chonetoidea and establishes its assignment to Strophochonetes within the family Strophochonetidae. This is the first recorded occurrence of the genus in the Silurian of New York, and its late Llandovery age makes S. cornutus (Hall) one of the earliest representatives of the genus.
