A COELACANTH FISH FROM THE ANISIAN (MIDDLE TRIASSIC) OF THE DOLOMITES

摘要

An incomplete coelacanthiform specimen is described from the Dont Formation (Anisian,Middle Trias sic) of Kühwiesenkopf/Monte Prà della Vacca in the Northern Dolomites (NE Italy). Even if the incompleteness of the specimen does not allow a reliable taxonomic assignment at generic level, it increases our understanding of Middle Trias sic coelacanthiform diversity in the western Tethys.
