Biology:Callipurbeckia
From HandWiki
Callipurbeckia is an extinct genus of marine semionotiform ray-finned fish from the Late Jurassic and Early Cretaceous periods. Fossils have been found in Germany, Tanzania, and England.[1]
It contains three species, which were previously classified in the related lepisosteiform genus Lepidotes.[1][2]
- C. minor (Agassiz, 1833) - Earliest Cretaceous (Berriasian) of England (Purbeck Beds)
- C. notopterus (Agassiz, 1835) - Late Jurassic (Tithonian) of Germany (Solnhofen Limestone)
- C. tendaguruensis (Arratia & Schultze, 1999) - Late Jurassic (Tithonian) of Tanzania (Tendaguru Formation)
Potential relatives of Callipurbeckia include Occitanichthys from the Tithonian of France (formerly confused with C. minor) and Tlayuamichin from the Albian of Mexico.[3][4]
Its name comes from "calli-", from an Ancient Greek word meaning beautiful, and "Purbeck", from the modern-day name of the area where a specimen of it was found.[1]
