The Eocene sea urchins from Plače near Ajdovščina, Western Slovenia

Considered are Eocene sea urchins from Pla~e near Ajdov{~ina. Nine specimens were found and eight distinct genera determined: Conoclypus, Echinolampas, Rhyncholampas, Ditremaster, Schizaster, Linthia, Cyclaster and Macropneustes. The species of listed generaindicate Middle Eocene – Lutetian age of b...
