Abstract |
Numerous regular echinoids have been collected by a German expedition in the Upper Cretaceous of Wadi Qena, Egypt. In this paper, the presence of six non-Hemicidaroid species in these deposits is discussed. Two genera (Desoricidaris and Bandelicyphus) and one species (Bandelicyphus qenaensis) are new. |
