“…Most of them need a revision and should be renamed. Fedorowski and Kullmann (2013) introduced a new genus Voinimitor, represented by a single species, i.e., V. projectus Fedorowski and Kullmann, 2013 from the Alba Formation that may be either late Viséan or early Serpukhovian in age. The Valdeteja Formation is defined by foraminifera derived from the type section as upper Bashkirian, with only the upper strata belonging to the lowermost Moscovian (Vereian) (Villa et al 2001).…”

“…The two most important studies of Pennsylvanian rugose corals from northern Spain are the work of de Groot (1963), revised by Fedorowski (2004) with a few changes, and the opus of Rodríguez (1984a). Unfortunately, de Groot's (1963) paper is mainly devoted to the uppermost Bashkirian and younger taxa.…”

“…Some others, such as Axolithophyllum Fomichev, 1953 and Petalaxis Milne Edwards and Haime, 1852 are widely distributed, while Asturiphyllum Rodríguez, 1984a is a new genus. Fedorowski (2004) revised most of the taxa described by de Groot (1963) and made several changes in their identifications. The most important of these are: 1) The recognition of two wall types in the taxa classified by de Groot (1963) as Petalaxis.…”

A detailed analysis of the upper Viséan, Serpukhovian and Bashkirian Rugosa of the Donets Basin confirms their Mississippian/Pennsylvanian turnover during the Eumorphoceras / Homalophyllites–Hudsonoceras Zone, as postulated earlier (Fedorowski 1981a). The deterioration of rugose corals, globally diverse in time and space in the late Viséan and Serpukhovian, has resulted in the patchy distribution of survivors and newcomers, present in the Bashkirian. Difficulties in inter-basinal communication and the isolation of some sites have resulted in a different content of Bashkirian Rugosa in particular patches, with only rare genera in common. New data has made it possible to document the appearance of the first late Carboniferous genera in the Donets Basin as early as the lower Voznessenkian Horizon (= lower Chokierian Substage), i.e., close to the beginning of the Bashkirian Stage. The two stages of diversification, established in the Bashkirian rugose corals of the Donets Basin, cannot find their counterparts elsewhere. A palaeogeographic overview of the most important sites of diversified rugose corals documents the need to re-examine many taxa, which should be based on complete specimen studies. This and the precise placement of taxa in the modern stratigraphy must be done in order to make rugose corals globally comparable. Simple repetitions of names, commonly used in general summaries, is strongly misleading in both stratigraphic and palaeogeographic reconstructions.

“…I am not concerned here either with the general ideas included in main papers dealing with the Family Petalaxidae, i.e., Fomichev (1953), de Groot (1963, Kozyreva (1974), Sutherland (1978), Hill (1981, Sando (1983), Bamber and Fedorowski (1998), Kossovaya (1998), Fedorowski (2004) and Fedorowski et al (2007) or with their different opinions of the content of the Family Petalaxidae and other items discussed except for one question, i.e., an inclusion in that family of fasciculate colonial, protocolonial and solitary species. Those questions, except for that one, are beyond the scope and topic of the present paper.…”

“…1, fig. 2a, b), and the colonial growth form of Lonsdaleoides was likewise contested (Fedorowski 2004). The colonial growth form of those genera was further questioned by Rodríguez and Bamber (2012) and Bamber et al (2017), who also document a gregarious growth form of Darwasophyllum.…”

The known occurrence of corals distinguished here in the new Family Krynkaphyllidae varies at the subfamily level. Those of the Subfamily Krynkaphyllinae subfam. nov. are so far almost unknown from outside of the Donets Basin. In contrast, those of the Subfamily Colligophyllinae subfam. nov. are common, possibly ranging from the lower Viséan Dorlodotia Salée, 1920, a potential ancestor of the family, to the Artinskian Lytvophyllum tschernovi Soshkina, 1925. They bear different generic names, but were all originally described as fasciculate colonial. A detailed study of Lytvophyllum dobroljubovae Vassilyuk, 1960, the type species of Colligophyllum gen. nov., challenges that recognition in that at least some of those taxa are solitary and gregarious and/or protocolonial. As such, solitary, protocolonial and, probably, fasciculate colonial habits are accepted in the Colligophyllinae subfam. nov., whereas the Krynkaphyllinae subfam. nov. contains only solitary taxa. The resemblance to the Suborder Lonsdaleiina Spasskiy, 1974 led to the analysis of families included in that suborder by Hill (1981) in the context of their relationship, or homeomorphy, to Krynkaphyllidae fam. nov. This question primarily concerns the Family Petalaxidae Fomichev, 1953; a relationship with the Family Geyerophyllidae Minato, 1955, is more distant, if one exists. The distinct, parallel stratigraphic successions of taxa within two subfamilies of the Krynkaphyllidae fam. nov. document their probably common roots and early divergence. However, a lack of robust data precludes an interpretation or treatment of those successions as phylogenetic. The absence of key stratigraphic and morphologic data meant that eastern Asiatic taxa have not been considered in these successions; however, morphological similarities allow for their tentative inclusion within the Krynkaphyllidae fam. nov. The following new taxa are introduced: Krynkaphyllidae fam. nov., Krynkaphyllinae subfam. nov., Colligophyllinae subfam. nov., Krynkaphyllum gen. nov., Colligophyllum gen. nov., Protokionophyllum feninoense sp. nov., Krynkaphyllum multiplexum sp. nov., Krynkaphyllum validum sp. nov., and three species of Protokionophyllum Vassilyuk in Aizenverg et al., 1983 left in open nomenclature.
