Rhynchonellid brachiopods from the Upper Tithonian and Lower Berriasian of the Pieniny Klippen Belt

Abstract

An assemblage of rhynchonellid brachiopods from the Upper Tithonian brachiopod bed exposed at the Czorsztyn Castle and from the Lower Berriasian limestones of Rogoźnik, Pieniny Klippen Belt, Poland, is described. The previous identifications are revised and descriptions are supplemented (mostly with internal--structural details) for 2 species of the genus Monticlarella, viz. M. agassizi (Zeuschner), M. capillata (Zittel), and 3 species of the genus Lacunosella, viz. L. atropha (Zittel), L. hoheneggeri (Suess), and L. zeuschneri (Zittel).
