Macrodon simense Chernyshev 1902
Abstract
Macrodon simense Chernyshev, 1902 [nomen dubium] Original source Chernyshev (1902): 346 [Russian], 667 [German]. Type stratum and age Upper Carboniferous. Type locality Russia (locality unknown). Type material Not traced. Remarks Chernyshev introduced the species as a new name for “ M.[acrodon] Lacordairianum auct. u. a.” (non De Koninck), but it is entirely unclear to which authors he referred to. Forms previously misidentified as “ M. lacordairianum ” by Verneuil are referred to as “ M. semilarvis Keys. ” Since the respective part of the discussion deals with Upper Carboniferous faunas from the central Ural Mts, it is likely that Chernyshev referred to previously misidentified records from these deposits. Given the uncertainty of the species’ identity, material availability and the lack of further discussion in the literature, we consider this species as a nomen dubium.
