Abstract
The Lower Cambrian strata above the Rispebjerg Sandstone in Scania (Skåne), southern Sweden are briefly described and the term Gislöv Formation is introduced for them. The vertical distribution of the faunal elements is described for the first time. Holmia sulcata, a member of the Holmia kjerulfi group, and Proampyx cf. linnarssoni are taken to indicate the presence of the Holmia kjerulfi-group Zone and the Proampyx linnarssoni Zone. The correlation is discussed, inter alia on the basis of a specimen which may belong to Calodiscus lobatus. Ellipsocephalus lunatus n.sp. is described.Keywords
