. Bulletins of American paleontology. 294 Bulletin 308. Text-figure 1. — Index map of New York showing the outcrop trace of the Silurian-Devonian boundary and collecting localities. INTRODUCTION This study systematically describes stromatoporoids from the uppermost Silurian (Pridoli) Rondout Formation of New York. Analyses of the paleoecology and paleobiogeography of the described stromatoporoids supplement knowledge of the paleoecology and paleogeography of New York during deposition of the Rondout Formation. Pridoli stromatoporoids are found in the Wilbur and Glasco Members of the Rondout Formation in eastern New York (Text- fig. 2), and the Cobleskill Member in central New York (Text-figs. 3, 4). Over 100 localities, 27 of which yielded stromatoporoids, were visited during the summers of 1974 and 1975. These 27 localities are shown on the sketch maps (Text-figs. 1-4), and are described in the following list. More than 325 stromatoporoids were collected, from which 534 thin-sections were prepared. This Pridoli stromatoporoid fauna contains eleven species (three new) belonging to five Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Paleontological Research Institution (Ithaca, N.
