Abstract

Meor Hakif Amir Hassan, Erdtmann, B.D., Wang X.-F. & Lee C.P., Early Devonian graptolites and tentaculitids in northwest Peninsular Malaysia and a revision of the Devonian–Carboniferous stratigraphy of the region. Alcheringa 37, 1–16. ISSN 0311-5518. Early Devonian tentaculitids are described from new outcrops in northwestern Peninsular Malaysia. The fossils occur in black carbonaceous shales of the Timah Tasoh Formation exposed in the state of Perlis. The occurrences of the graptolite Monograptus langgunensis and the tentaculitid Nowakia (Turkestanella) acuaria acuaria give an Early Devonian (Pragian or Emsian) age for the black shales. The tentaculitid subspecies Nowakia (Turkestanella) acuaria posterior is reported for the first time from Peninsular Malaysia.
