A brief summary of the Ordovician conodont faunas from the Iberian Peninsula
Ordovician conodont studies in the Iberian Peninsula were initiated by Fuganti and Serpagli (1968), who recognized 21 morphospecies included in 15 morphogenera in the Upper Ordovician Urbana Limestone from a single locality in the Central Iberian Zone. Two years later Boersma (in Hartevelt, 1970) id...
