Abstract

The capitulum and peduncular armature of Arcoscalpellum toulmini Weisbord are described on new material from the lower unnamed member of the Porters Creek Formation in Wilcox County, Alabama. A few scuta and a possible tergum of a species Zeugmatolepas Withers bearing considerable resemblance to Z. cretae (Steenstrup) were recovered from the same locality.
