Abstract

The first report of silicified ostracodes of Thuringian Ecotype (sensu BECKER) from Early Devonian (Emsian) limestones of the Pelitli and Kartal formations in NW Anatolia (Yakacik area, Istanbul, Turkey) is presented. The poorly preserved faunas of only nine taxa indicate faunal relations of the Istanbul Terrane especially to Thuringia (Germany) and Morocco during the Emsian.
