| Abstract/Notes | AbstractA new chasmataspid (Chelicerata, Chasmataspida) is described as Forfarella mitchelli gen. et sp. nov. from the Lower Devonian of Scotland. This species is problematic in that it was catalogued under the name Forfarella mitchelli Waterston (no date), but was never formally described. Furthermore, its type locality is uncertain. Chasmataspids are a poorly known taxon within Chelicerata which appear to be closely related to eurypterids. F. mitchelli is only the fourth chasmataspid species to be described. Though poorly preserved, it shows affinities with other Devonian chasmataspids and supports the hypothesis that this group may have been more geographically widespread in the Devonian than has previously been recognised. | ||
