Conditolepis marginifera (Helms, 1959) from its nominal zone at Łagów.

Incomplete apparatus composition of Conditolepis marginifera .

Diagnoza

Short P₁ element with subcircular dorsal end, bearing a sharp ridge or row of tubercles along the anterior margin in proximity to the blade.

Porównanie

Because of the tremendous morphological variability of the P₁ elements of this species it is difficult to determine it reliably based on single specimens. In fact, the co-occurrence of C. inflexoidea, separated by a gap in morphologic variability, gives a helpful hint that one is dealing with a separate species and not with an extreme morphology of the stratigraphically preceding C. quadrantinodosa.
