The Northernmost Occurrence of the Tropical-Subtropical Brittle Star <i>Ophiocoma</i> (Echinodermata, Ophiuroidea) from a Late Cretaceous Rocky Shore in Southern Sweden
In spite of considerable progress during the last few years, the fossil record of the ophiuroids, or brittle stars, is still poorly known, especially with respect to taxa restricted to specific environments. Here, we describe new ophiuroid fossils collected from an Upper Cretaceous rocky shore in Iv...
