Abstract

The Silurian trilobites described here are referred to 5 genera and 5 species-level taxa of which Calymene iladon is new. The composition of the fauna is unusual for North Greenland in that it is overwhelmingly dominated by specimens of Calymene. Other elements of the fauna are known from other areas of North Greenland, and at least closely related forms of one of them have cosmopolitan distributions.
