A WIDESPREAD COMMENSAL ASSOCIATE OF DEVONIAN FAVOSITIDS |
| |
| Abstract: | Tubes situated at the angles between corallitis in favositids have already been recognized as symbiotic organisms, and several genera are known. A new genus, Actinosalpinx, having a threerayed form in cross-section, is described. It is associated with Lower and Middle Devonian Favosites species. Antherosalpinx is proposed for another Devonian form with four- to eight-rayed cross-section. Such forms are believed to belong to a group of symbiotic annelid worms.-- D. J. McLaren. |
