Famennian microvertebrates from the Dalmeh area, central IranWA Museum Records and Supplements | Updated 9 years agoAbstract - Late Devonian (Famennian) fish remains are here reported from limestones exposed in the Garigoon Mountains, near the village of Dalmeh, central Iran. The microvertebrate fauna includes the first records from Iran of some Devonian sharks, including Phoebodus gothicus, Thrinacodus ferox, Stethacanthus sp., Protacrodus sp. and Orodus sp. The new protacrodontoid Dalmehodus turnerae gen. et. sp. nov. is described herein. The presence of Ph. gothicus in the crepida zone makes this the earliest occurrences of the species. The actinopterygian Moythomasia durgaringa, previously known only from Australia, is here recorded from Iran in the early Famennian, extending the known age range for the species.
