Oldhaminid brachiopods from the Permian of Transcaucasia |
| |
| Abstract: | The Oldhaminoidea are classified as a suborder of the Productida, on the basis of the new genus Spinolyttonia which has productid spines, and on other morphological considerations. The Transcaucasian oldhaminoids are described in support of this position, with detailed treatment of the genera Keyseriingina Tschernyschev, Leptodus Kayser, Oldhamina Waagen, Gubleria H. and G. Termier, Spinolyttonia Sarycheva (nov.), and Poikilosakos Watson. The Transcaucasian fauna is Upper Permian (Guadalupian and Dzhulfian).—R. E. Grant |
