Juresania is an extinct genus of brachiopod that existed from the Carboniferous to the Permian.[1][2]

Description

[edit]

Juresania's members were epifaunal, meaning they lived on top of the seafloor, not buried within it, and were suspension feeders. [1][3] They had small spines that cover both halves of the shell.

Distribution

[edit]

Juresania specimens can be found in the Americas, Europe, and Asia, with most Juresania specimens having been found in the Northern Hemisphere.[1][4][5]
