New Middle and Late Ordovician cornute stylophorans (Echinodermata) from Morocco and other peri-Gondwanan areas
Original language description
Cornute stylophorans are a minor, though typical component of Middle-Late Ordovician echinoderm assemblages adapted to soft siliciclastic substrates, in high latitude peri-Gondwanan regions. All previously reported occurrences of Darriwilian-Katian cornutes from Czech Republic, France, Morocco and Spain are revised and their plate homologies reassessed. The genera Beryllia and Juliaecarpus are reinterpreted as junior synonyms of Domfrontia , and Thoralicystis is synonymised with Bohemiaecystis . Several Mediterranean scotiaecystids previously assigned to Bohemiaecystis and/or Scotiaecystis are placed within Thoralicarpus gen. nov., and cornute taxa originally left in open nomenclature by Chauvel are formally described as Bohemiaecystis chouberti sp. nov. (AVI) and Destombesicarpus izegguirenensis gen. et sp. nov. (AVIII). Other new Mediterranean taxa include Arauricystis clariondi sp. nov., Destombesicarpus budili gen. et sp. nov., Milonicystis reboulorum sp. nov., Thoralicarpus bounemrouensis gen. et sp. nov., and T . prokopi gen. et sp. nov. The six cornute genera identified in Darriwilian-Katian Moroccan echinoderm Lagerstätten are also present in coeval assemblages of at least one other Mediterranean region, thus supporting the existence of strong faunal affinities between the Anti-Atlas, the Armorican Massif, the Barrandian area and the Iberian Peninsula.
