| Abstract | Seventeen taxa are described from the biohermal and related limestones of the Attawapiskat Formation developed on the flanks of the Cape Henrietta Maria Arch. A new proetid genus, Winiskia, is proposed
as are the new species Chiozoon umisk, Stenopareia? julli, and Winiskia perryi. The trilobites indicate late Llandovery or early Wenlock age for the Attawapiskat on both flanks of the arch; conodonts and corals from core from a well on the north
flank imply late Llandovery for the bulk of the formation but the upper beds are not dated |
