Delepinea in the lower Carboniferous of northwest Australia

G. A. Thomas

Abstract

large chonetoid brachiopod Delepinea has been found in lower Carboniferous deposits of the Bonaparte Gulf basin, northwest It is represented by a new species D. uttingi which appears to have its closest affinities with European Visean species. The new species seems to be dimorphic. Delepinea is now known from the lower Carboniferous of Europe, North Africa, Asia, and from east and west Australia.
