Camarotoechia

Camarotoechia is an extinct genus of brachiopods found in Paleozoic strata.

Taxonomy

Cherkesova (2007) reassigns two taxa, "radiata" and "omaliusi", that Nalivkin had placed in Camarotoechia, to Sinotectirostrum as a new combination for a species and a subspecies respectively. The type of Camarotoechia is perhaps Atrypa congretata <small>Conrad, 1841</small>. The species †Camarotoechia elegans is from the Ordovician and Silurian of the Siberian Platform. It includes one subspecies Camarotoechia elegans forma ramosa.

Species

The following species of Camarotoechia have been described:

• C. bimesiornata
• C. dotis (Floresta Formation, Colombia)
• C. elegans (Siberia)
• C. haraganensis
• C. latisinuata
• C. tethys
