Article: Early Cretaceous belemnites from southern Mozambique

Neohibolites ewaldi (v. Strombeck, 1861) and Peratobelus foersteri sp. nov. are described from the Upper Aptian sediments of the Rio Maputo river, near Catuane, southern Mozambique. Peratobelus has a wider distribution than was first thought, occurring on both Tethyan (Mozambique) and Pacific (Antarctica, Australia) coasts of Gondwana. The presence of Neohibolites in Mozambique strengthens the hypothesis of a widespread migration of this genus in the Aptian-Albian.
