Abstract

Inspection of the type collection of the Lower Silurian brachiopod Anabaia Clarke, 1899, from the Pitinga Member of the Trombetas Formation, shows that Harringtonina Boucot, 1972, is a junior synonym. Three species are recognized for this endemic Malvinokaffric Realm genus: Anabaia paraia, the type species from the Llandovery of the northern rim of the Amazon Basin and the Titicaca region in southern Peru, Anabaia paraguayensis from the Llandovery of eastern Paraguay, and Anabaia australis from the later Llandoverian through Ludlovian and possibly Pridolian in the Andean region extending from the Precordillera de San Juan, Argentina, north through Bolivia to the Titicaca region of southern Peru. It is predicted that Anabaia will eventually be recognized in South Africa, and probably in West Africa as well, in beds of Malvinokaffric Realm affinity.
