Rugose corals across the Devonian-Carboniferous boundary in NW Turkey
An uppermost Famennian (Strunian) coral assemblage has been recovered in the middle part of the Yilanli Formation of the Istanbul Zone (Zonguldak and Bartin areas, NW Turkey). In the Bartin area, the studied fossiliferous interval corresponds to a c. 30 m-thick unit of bioclastic to peloidal wackest...
