Abstract | Following revision and emendation of the genus Ferromia Vavrdova, 1979, three species are placed in synonymy: Ferromia pellita (Martin, 1977) Martin, comb. nov., emend., F. filosa Vavrdova, 1979 and Micrhystridium diornamentum Rasul, 1979. The biostratigraphic consequence is that the genus, considered here to be monospecific, appears in the lower Tremadocian and not in the Arenigian or the lower Llanvirnian. |
