Abstract

A new genus, Novoameura, is erected with the type species Anisopyge mckeei Cisne. Delaria macclintocki Cisne from the Kaibab Formation of Arizona is herein regarded as a junior synonym of Delaria sevilloidia (Chamberlain), which was originally described from the Phosphoria Formation of Wyoming. The Leonardian (Permian) San Andres Formation of the Sacramento Mountains, central New Mexico, contains trilobite species known both from the Kaibab Formation of Arizona and the Phosphoria Formation of Wyoming, but lacks trilobite species known from the nearby Permian of West Texas.
