We describe an almost complete cup of the flexible crinoid genus Edriocrinus found in the Acanthopyge Limestone (Eifelian) in the
Koněprusy region. The articulated cup, composed of an anal X and well defined radial plates, is preserved inside the living chamber of an
orthocone cephalopod. This cup…

The original types of seven cirripede taxa recorded between 1885 and 1887 by J. Kafka and A. Fritsch et J. Kafka are redescribed
and reillustrated. These stalked (scalpellomorph) and sessile (brachylepadomorph) species include ‘Scillaelepas’ conica (REUSS, 1844), Titanolepas tuberculata (DARWIN,…
