Abstract

A rich cyclocystoid fauna, based on macroscopical and isolated microscopical material comprising at least 13 species of Polytryphocycloides, Zygocycloides, Cyclocystoides, Sievertsia, Apycnodiscus, as well as an undescribed new genus, have been found in nearly all Silurian strata of Gotland, Sweden. Cyclocystoides and Zygocycloides are recorded from the Silurian for the first time. The new material presented here, shows an exceptional diversity within the sparse fossil record of this echinoderm group.
