A new paguroid from the type Maastrichtian (upper Cretaceous, the Netherlands) and erection of a new family
On the basis of a fragmentary carapace a new extinct paguroid, Annuntidiogenes massetispinosus n. sp., is described from the upper Meerssen Member (Maastricht Formation, upper Maastrichtian) of the Maastrichtian type area in the southeast Netherlands.
