Rf. Miller, NOTE ON PTERYGOTUS-ANGLICUS AGASSIZ (EURYPTERIDA, DEVONIAN) FROM THE CAMPBELLTON FORMATION, NEW-BRUNSWICK, Atlantic geology, 32(2), 1996, pp. 95-100
Fragments of the large eurypterid Pterygotus, recently collected from
the Devonian Campbellton Formation at Atholville, New Brunswick, are i
dentified as belonging to P. anglicus Agassiz. The only previous Ptery
gotus specimens from this site, collected in 1881, were assigned to a
new species P. atlanticus Clarke and Ruedemann, in 1912. Clarke and Ru
edemann's suggestion that Il atlanticus might turn out to be a small s
pecimen of P. anglicus is supported by this new find. However, possibl
e revision of P. atlanticus awaits the discovery of additional, more c
omplete, material.
