Maastrichtian and Danian species of Turkostreini (Ostreidae, Crassostreinae) from the Neuquén Basin, Argentina
The record of Turkostrea damboreneae nom. nov. and Cubitostrea, primordialis n. sp. in the Maastrichtian Jagüel and Roca Formations and of Turkostrea argetitina n. sp., in the Danian beds of the Roca Formation reveals that the two genera involved have a history that reaches back into the Late Cretac...
