Abstract

On the basis of more than one hundred specimens from the following fusulininan zones, the Millerella yowarensis zone, the Pseudostaffella antiqua zone, the Profusulinella beppensis zone, and the Fusulinella biconica zone, in the Carboniferous of the Akiyoshi limestone Group, a new schizophoriid genus, Neoschizophoria is proposed with Neoschizophoria otai gen. et sp. nov. as the type species. Brief remarks on the biostratigraphic significance and paleoecology of the species are also given.
