Short summary
This paper describes a new species of the genus Desmocysta from the Late Cretaceous in the Norwegian Sea. The short stratigraphic range for this new species makes it a good biostratigraphic marker. The available published data also indicate that this genus is restricted to higher latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere and is suggested to have preferred turbid waters and stressed marine environments.
