Summary: | Genus Seductorithyris gen. nov. Diagnosis. Round outline, with the dorsal valve almost circular. Profile equi- to gently ventribiconvex. Smooth shell with growth lines. Erect beak. Ventral valve umbo keeled. Lateral commissure straight, anterior commissure rectimarginate. Internal structures: cardinal process present, flat/horizontal and wide hinge plates deflect dorsally, crural bases develop on inner margin of hinge plates, clubbed and weakly deflected dorsally. Transverse band curved, low-arched, and approximately at mid-point of brachidium, anterior flanges long. Etymology. For the deceptive way that homoeomorphy among brachiopods may mask their affinities (deceiver—latin seductor ). Occurrence. Uppermost Ryazanian of Spitsbergen. Type species.
