Linuparus (Linuparus) korura n. sp. is described from Bortonian (middle Eocene) rocks in Otaio Gorge, South Canterbury, New Zealand. This discovery represents the first occurrence of the genus in New Zealand and the first notice of a fossil occurrence of the subgenus which is represented by three modern Indo-Pacific species. Comparison of key morphological descriptors suggests that L. korura is related to L. scyllariformis and L. trigonis. A stridulatory mechanism, similar to that seen on modern Linuparus, is described for the first time from the fossil record.

The Upper Cretaceous and Paleogene sediments exposed in Borehole 9 (Troizk, Chelyabinsk Area) in the south of the Trans-Ural Region (Western Siberia) are studied by palynological methods. The BH9 has uncovered the Fadyushinskaya and Gan’kino formations of Upper Cretacious age and the Talitsa, Serov, Irbit, Chegan and Kurtamysh formations of Paleogene age. Nine dinocysts assemblages and nine spores and pollen assemblages were revealed. The Campanian, Maastrichtian, Late Paleocene, Low-Middle Eocene and Early Oligocene age of the sediments were substantiated.
