<i>Wutinoceras</i>(Nautiloidea) from the Setul Limestone (Ordovician) of Malaysia

Abstract

Wutinoceras robustum (Kobayashi & Matsumoto), previously known only from the Ordovician of north China, has been found near the base of the Setul Limestone in the Langkawi Islands, Malaysia, and strengthens the known faunal links between South East Asia and north China. This is the first description of Wutinoceras from South East Asia and suggests a Whiterockian age for the lower sequence of the Lower Setul Limestone.
