Abstract

marine biota

Aotearoa

New Zealand

Brachiopoda

lamp shells

The total number of described, and known but undescribed, brachiopod species from the Aotearoa New Zealand region is 723 taxa, 69 of which are extant species and 646 of which are fossil species (Tables 15.1 & 15.2; Fig. 15.1). The New Zealand extant species totals comprise approximately 4%, 36%, and 16% of the global totals for brachiopod classes Lingulata, Craniata, and Rhynchonellata, respectively. Since MacFarlan et al. (2009), 5 new Triassic species, 15 new Jurassic species, 4 new Cretaceous species, 4 new Cenozoic genera/species, and 1 new extant species, have been described and the presence of a further 30 extant species has been identified. A checklist of extant and fossil New Zealand Brachiopoda is provided.
