Title: | New trilobites from the Lower Cambrian Emu Bay Shale Lagerstätte at Big Gully, Kangaroo Island, South Australia | Contributor(s): | Paterson, John R (author) ; Jago, James B (author) | Publication Date: | 2006 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/4993 | Abstract: | Two new trilobites from the Lower Cambrian Emu Bay Shale Lagerstätte at Big Gully, Kangaroo Island, are described. 'Megapharanaspis nedini' gen. et sp. nov. is placed in the Megapharanaspidae, a new family of the Emuelloidea. 'Holyoakia simpsoni' sp. nov. represents the first occurrence of the genus outside Antarctica, providing further confirmation of the close faunal affinity between Cambrian trilobite faunas from Australia and East Antarctica. New specimens of 'Redlichia takooensis' are documented that provide new morphological information, including a description of the rostral plate and hypostome. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Memoirs of the Association of Australasian Palaeontologists, v.32, p. 43-57 | Publisher: | Geological Society of Australia Inc | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 0810-8889 2205-8877 |
