Ten silicified brachiopod taxa have been recovered from the Ben Suardal Limestone Formation (Durness Group) on the Isle of Skye, western Scotland. This Arenig fauna contains a new camerellid genus, Boreadocamara, and new species of each of the orthacean genera Archaeorthis, Fasciculina, and Oligorthis. Representatives of Billingsella, Finkelnburgia, Syntrophia, Syntrophopsis, and an indeterminate orthacean have also been recovered from etched residues of the Ben Suardal Limestone. The Skye fossils show strong affinities with the Scoto-Appalachian or American faunal province, in keeping with the inferred plate tectonic position of the Durness Group along the northwestern margin of the early Palaeozoic ‘Iapetus’ Ocean.
