Biology:Holodipterus
From HandWiki
Holodipterus is an extinct genus of prehistoric marine lungfish from the Late Devonian of eastern Europe and Australia.[1] The genus name was originally coined to replace "Holodus" Pander, 1858, which was already preoccupied.[2]
The following species are known:[2][3]
- †H. elderae Pridmore, 1994 - Early Frasnian of Western Australia, Australia (Gogo Formation) [4]
- †H. gogoensis Miles, 1977 - Early Frasnian of Western Australia, Australia (Gogo Formation)[5]
- †H. kiprijanowae (Pander, 1858) (type species) - Middle Famennian of Oryol, Russia (Dankov-Lebedyan Beds)
- †H. santacrucensis Gorizdro-Kulczycka, 1950 - Middle Famennian of Poland (Holy Cross Mountains)
The species H. meemannae from the Gogo Formation is now placed in its own genus, Asthenorhynchus.[2] It is likely that this genus is paraphyletic, and that the two Australian species likely belong in a different genus.[2]
One specimen of H. gogoensis has a well-preserved braincase that preserves numerous nerve canals, including olfactory canals.[6]
