Pseudopolyconites slovenicus n.sp. resedimented to Paleocene flysch breccia of the Soča river valley (Slovenia)

Abstract

An entirely preserved large specimen of Upper Cretaceous rudist Psedopolyconites slovenicus n. sp. is described, characterized by the low and broad lower valve surrounded by a thick envelope of tiny straight tubules. The specimen was redeposited in Paleocene from the northern edge of Adriatic-Dinaric carbonate platform into a marginal part of the flysch basin.
