| Abstract |
Trilobites of the family Lichidae are relatively poorly diversified within the Eifelian mixed siliciclastic-carbonate succession of the southern margin of the Dinant Synclinorium (Belgium). Until now, they were only represented by species belonging to the genera Ceratarges and Eifliarges. The recent discovery of a well-preserved specimen within the Eifelian-aged Jemelle Formation in the Couvin area led us to propose the first detailed description of a representative of the genus Ohleum (O. magreani sp. nov.) in the Ardennes |
