Roundyella View in CoL ? sp. indet.
(Pl. II: Fig. 16)
2013 Roundyella ? sp. indet.; Maillet: 74, pl. VIII, fig. 17.
Material. 2 specimens (2 C).
Description. Medium-sized elongated carapace, sub-rectangular outline in lateral view, flat in dorsal view. Overlap of valves unknown (equivalve?). Hmax at 1/3 posterior; Lmax median; Wmax median. Almost straight dorsal margin, posteriorly oblique. Rounded ventral margin, more convex at its extremities. Regularly convex anterior and posterior margins, forming angles of about 120° with dorsal margin. Posterior part of the carapace higher than the anterior one. Surface possibly reticulated.
Discussion. The outline and main features of the carapace appears to be those of the genus Roundyella , but these specimens are too badly preserved and too deformed to identify the species.
Occurrence. Middle Givetian (Candás Fm, mbs B and C), Asturias (Peran-Perlora section).
