The ammonoids from the Grès du Kahla supérieur of Timimoun (Middle-early Late Tournaisian; Gourara, Algeria)

The ammonoids from two very prolific horizons in the upper Kahla Sandstone (Tournaisian, Early Carboniferous) of Timimoun (Gourara, Algeria) are described monographically. Nine new ammonoid species are introduced: <i>Imitoceras altilobatum</i> n. sp., <i>Triimitoceras amplisellatum...

description The ammonoids from two very prolific horizons in the upper Kahla Sandstone (Tournaisian, Early Carboniferous) of Timimoun (Gourara, Algeria) are described monographically. Nine new ammonoid species are introduced: <i>Imitoceras altilobatum</i> n. sp., <i>Triimitoceras amplisellatum</i> n. sp., <i>Kazakhstania inequalis</i> n. sp., <i>Acrocanites imperfectus</i> n. sp., <i>Xinjiangites scalaris</i> n. sp., and <i>Becanites canalifer</i> n. sp. from the North African <i>Kazakhstania-Acrocanites</i> Assemblage as well as <i>Acrocanites recurvus</i> n. sp., <i>Becanites singularis</i> n. sp., and <i>Becanites inflateralis</i> n. sp. from the <i>Pericyclus-Progoniatites</i> Assemblage. The first of these is one of the most diverse ammonoid faunas known from this time interval. <br><br> doi:<a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/mmng.200900009" target="_blank">10.1002/mmng.200900009</a>
