First record of the family Ringiculidae (Gastropoda) from the Middle Tertiary of Antarctica
A new species of the late Mesozoic–Cenozoic family Ringiculidae ( Ringicula ( Ringicula ) cockburnensis n. sp.) is described from basal glauconitic beds of late Eocene age of Cockburn Island, Antarctica, and is the first reported occurrence of the family Ringiculidae from the continent of Antarctica...
