Carolowilhelmina geognostica

Name edit

Carolowilhelmina geognostica Carls, 1995

  • Holotype: MPZ 95/174. Incomplete skull with inferognathals and parasphenoid.

Type locality: Eastern slope about 3 m above the creek Río Moyeuela = río Santa Maria, 190 m S of the decayed mill Molino Bajo, 2.20 km N of the Church of Monforte de Moyuela; SE quadrant of Mapa Topográfico Nacional 1:25.000 sheet 466 (Blesa) IV (Blesa), X: 667.110 Y: 4549.050; Mapa Geológico de España 1_50.000 sheet 466 (Moyuela) X: 824.700, Y: 722.470.

Etymology: the ancient term used instead of "geological". The name was given to commemorate, because of the closure cf the subject Geology-Palaeontology at the Technical University Carolo-Wilhelmina Braunschweig, that this subject had a long and laudable history since the early days of Carolo-Wilhelmina.
