Paguroid anomurans from the upper Tithonian–lower Berriasian of Štramberk, Moravia (Czech Republic)

Abstract

Subsequent to a preliminary report on a handful of paguroid remains from the Tithonian (uppermost Jurassic) to lower Berriasian (Lower Cretaceous) Štramberk Limestone in Moravia (eastern Czech Republic), published in 2013, several field campaigns were organised by our research team during the summers of 2012–2015 and 2018.

In fact, it ranks
