Abstract
    Fifty-nine ostracod species are recorded in the lower Famennian at Coumiac. Podocopida, with numerous Bairdiacea, predominate; Myodocopida remain very scarce and Metacopida are absent. Eleven species belong to the Thuringian ecotype. This assemblage shows that the paleoenvironment was a well oxygenated outer carbonated platform, moderately deeper than during the late Frasnian. Seventeen surviving species and forty-two newly arriving species recolonize biotopes during 1.5 million years following the F/F boundary. Some of these last come from subspeciations, others from speciations. All are allopatric. either between different platform areas or between plaform and epibathyal areas. The forty-two species occurring in the early Famennian at Coumiac are figured. Six new species are erected: Rectella? abdita nov. sp., Grammia famenniensis nov. sp., Orthonaria? biconvexa nov. sp., Famenella inflexa nov. sp., Acratia sagittaeformis nov. sp. and Bairdia quasifabaeformis nov. sp.
