M a t e r i a l: One complete specimen,
30 specimens
of the free anterior tube portion, 4 incomplete specimens of the free anterior tube portion and attached posterior tube portion, 26 tube fragments.
D e s c r i p t i o n: Posterior tube portion is attached to the substrate; the cross-section of this part is triangular, and there is one median keel. Anterior tube portion freely erect with five rounded keels respectively, four lobes and a very fine distinct median keel. Diameter of the anterior tube portion
2.6 mm
. Lumen circular,
2.4 mm
in diameter. A groove is present on the underside between the lower lateral lobes.
D i s c u s s i o n:
These
specimens are very similar to
Ditrupa
(
Pentaditrupa
)
iubata
REGENHARDT
, 1961
from the
Turonian of Troo
,
Loire-et-Cher
,
France
, which has four rounded keels (lobes) and a very distinct dorsal keel.
The
cross-section is pentangular and there is no transversal ornamentation.
The
holotype
differs from the specimens from Kaňk due to its larger median keel, and from Regenhardt´s description it is clear that the anterior tube portion was still attached to the substrate. In contrast the specimens from Kaňk have anterior tube portions which are free and erect above the substrate
.
Moreover, the specimens from Kaňk do not belong to the typical
tricostata
species from the Cenomanian of
Essen
in
Germany
. According to their morphological features they belong to the subgenus
Pyrgopolon
(
Septenaria
)
, see (
Jäger, 1983
,
2005
;
Jäger and Breton, 2002
). In the BCB,
Pyrgopolon
(
Septenaria
) cf.
tricostata
was found in nearshore localities, e.g. Velim, Nová Ves, Kamajka, and Chrtníky.
The specimen from Nová Ves near Kolín which
Ziegler (1984)
described as
Ditrupa iubata
(
REGENHARDT
)
(NM- O5391) is not serpulid. The specimen which according to its registration number NM-O5363 should be, is not the original specimen figured by
Ziegler (1984)
on his pl. 6, fig. 7 as
Ditrupa subtorquata
from Nová Ves. In addition, the original specimens NM-O5394 and NM-O5395 determined by Ziegler as
Ditrupa tricostata
from Velim, all are very similar to the specimens from Kaňk and represent the same species, which is, however, neither
subtorquata
nor
tricostata
.
Ziegler (1967
,
1984
) described specimens from the BCB as belonging to the genus
Ditrupa
, but this is a misinterpretation, because in contrast to
Ditrupa
,
the posterior tube portion is attached to the substrate, whereas the shape is similar to the genus
Pyrgopolon
and especially the subgenus
Septenaria
.
The species
Ditrupa subtorquata
and
Ditrupa schlotheimi
clearly belong to the genus
Ditrupa
.
