Likely Pa element pairing in Taphrognathus vari- ans morphotype II (based on the collection of Austin and Mitchell, 1975; and this study). Letters indicate blade position/ curvature categories. and occupies most of the lower surface of the element. It is widest and deepest at element midlength and bears a medial groove. Posteriorly the cavity tapers gently to the end of the element. DISCUSSION The single Pa element of Taphrognathus sp. a differs from other species of Taphrognathus chiefly in the form of the anterior blade, the roundedness of the parapet crests, and the shallowness of the medial trough. It is very similar to specimens identified as Cloghergnathus sp. A and Taph- rognathus sp. B, in Marchant (1978) and Rees (1987) respectively. 29.
