Abstract

The work presents thirteen brachiopod species from Crnoljevica locality, and discusses the age of sedimentary rocks in which the fauna was found. The determined time of deposition is the Barremian. Brachiopod fauna of Crnoljevica resembles very much that of central Carpatho-Balkanides (Ozren, Devica, and Suva Planina). Paleoecological and paleobiogeographic features of the given fauna are analysed and a tabular overview is given of the revised brachiopod species described by Antula (1903). Both the range and distribution of Crnoljevica brachiopods in the Boreal and the Subtethyan (Jura) regions and the northern margin of the Tethys are included
