Abstract

An occurrence of Chitinozoa from the Dock Street Clay Member of the Middle Devonian Alpena Limestone of Michigan is reported. The Chitinozoa fauna consists of only one species, a form with distinctive morphologic characteristics heretofore undescribed. The new genus Alpenachitina is proposed and the type species Alpenachitina eisenacki described. A selected bibliography lists the pertinent literature on Chitinozoa.
