Abstract
Abstract. A new hibbertopterid eurypterid, Cyrtoctenus bambachi n. sp., is described from the Early Mississippian (Tournaisian) Price Formation of western Virginia. The same unit yields an unidentifiable stylonurine eurypterid. These are the first eurypterids documented from the Mississippian of North America, and only the fourth locality of this age anywhere in the world to yield eurypterids.
期刊介绍：
