Summary

Ignotrypa multivincula gen. et sp. nov., (Polyzoa, Cryptostomata), is described and figured from the Lower Devonian Garra and Nubrigyn Formations of central western New South Wales. It has a typical fenestrate meshwork but the carinae are thickened and joined laterally by numerous connections.
