Abstract
Abstract The study of Devonian chonetoidean brachiopods from the Taoudeni and South Hoggar basins, in Mali and Niger, South of the Reguibat-Hoggar shield, allows the description of new eodevonariid species: Lomaella amziensis nov. sp. (Tassilis Oua-n-Ahaggar, south Hoggar Basin), Eodevonaria taoudeniensis nov. sp. and Loreleiella sp. (Taoudeni Basin). The occurrence of the genus Lomaella in NW Africa, only known hitherto from South America, allows analysing the hypothetical connecting migratory routes between both regions situated on the western part of the Gondwana palaeocontinent during the late Emsian. The phylogenetic relationships of Lomaella and Eodevonaria with the SW European genera Davoustia-Renaudia-Loreleiella are discussed.
