Palaeozygopleura vaneki Frýda, Ferrová, Berkyová , and Frýdová, 2008

Holotype. UUG JF 851 (Frýda et al. 2008: fig. 1F–H).

Paratypes. UUG JF 852–891.

Type locality. Čeřinka hillside (49°58'1.973"N, 14°10'28.353"E), south of Bubovice, Barrandian; locality description with a list of the hitherto known fossils can be found in Chlupáč et al. (1979), Havlíček & Vanĕk (1996), and Ferrová et al. (2012).

Type horizon. The Chýnice Limestone, Novakia elegans Zone , middle Emsian, late Early Devonian.

Remarks. Palaeozygopleura vaneki is extremely abundant in strata belonging to the Nowakia barrandei Bouček & Prantl, 1959 — N. elegans (Barrande, 1867) Subzone of the N. elegans tentaculite Biozone (Ferrová 2010; Ferrová et al. 2012).

Stratigraphic and geographic distributions. Palaeozygopleura vaneki is a common species only at its type locality. It was also found on the west slope of the Kvĕtnice hill, NE of Hostim (about 20 km SW of Prague), also from the Chýnice Limestone. An additional occurrence of P. vaneki was recently recorded by Radek Labuta (pers. comm.) in the Chýnice Limestone of the Za kapličkou section near Bubovice. De Baets et al. (2010) reported an occurrence of P. vaneki from the early Emsian strata of Morocco.
