Abstract
    A new genus, Novaplatirostrum, with type species N. sauerlandense n. sp., is described from the late Famennian of northern Sauerland and southeastern Thuringia. From the latter region, lack of material precludes a description of the species, but serial transverse sections made from two specimens confirm the generic placement. Both species are rare and occur with goniatiles in a deep water facies.
