Abstract

The genus and species Johnognathus huddlei Mashkova, 1977, is synonymized with Distomodus staurognathoides (Walliser, 1964) on the basis of common occurrence, similar morphology, and the discovery of a complete S element of D. staurognathoides with a posterior process developed into a platform that is identical in morphology to specimens referred to J. huddlei.
