New late Smithian (Early Triassic) ammonoids from the Lusitaniadalen Member, Vikinghogda Formation, Svalbard
A single carbonate concretion from the uppermost Lusitaniadalen Member (‘Fish Niveau’, Vikinghøgda Formation) at Stensiöfjellet, Spitsbergen, contains a fairly rich assemblage of late Smithian (Early Triassic, Olenekian) ammonoids. The main species identified are Wasatchites tridentinus Spath, 1934,...
