Abstract
Corynexochid trilobites of the Cambrian of Morocco are described and the subfamily Acontheinae is revised. WithKootenia beethovenin. sp.,Kooteniaspp. indet.,Strettoniasp. A,Clavigellus annulusn. gen. and sp., and gen. et sp. incert., the Moroccan Corynexochida comprise only a few forms that are almost exclusively restricted to the High Atlas Mountains. Biogeographical relationships are weak; strong relationships may exist with the faunas of the Shropshire area as already exemplified by some eodiscid and ellipsocephalid taxa.Keywords
