Abstract
Eoharpid trilobites from the Ordovician of Brittany and Portugal are revised. Eoharpes guichenensis Henry and Philippot of Llandeilo age from Brittany is redescribed on the basis of new material and E. macaoensis sp. nov. of probable Caradoc age from central Portugal is described. The broadly contemporaneous Armorican species E. guichenensis and E. cristatus Romano from north Portugal enforces the strong faunal link between the Martigne-Ferchaud synclinorium south of Rennes and the Valongo area during the Llandeilo.
