Abstract

Dissocladella bystrickyi n.sp. occurs in early diagenetic Upper Triassic dolomites, that were deposited in tidal flat and tidal channel environments in the carbonate platform interior. The new alga, assigned to the genus Dissocladella, is characterized by verticillate and distally flattened primary ramifications which give rectangular pores and each bear 5-7 club-shaped secondaries. Its stratigraphic position is probably within the Norian-Rhaetian.
