ABSTRACT
Pseudorhapydionina laurinensis, P. dubia, P. anglonensis and Pseudorhipidionina casertana (Subfamily Pseudorhapydionininae) from the Iberian Range are restudied. The age of the deposits containing these species is late Cenomanian. However, a small Pseudorhapydionina (named in this work as P. aff. laurinensis) occurs in the lower Cenomanian deposits suggesting that the origin of the group is in the earliest Cenomanian.
