Remarks

The general outline of Kirkbya sp. is close to that of Kirkbya permiana (Jones, 1850) in Woszczyńska, 1987 from the Late Permian of Poland ( Woszczyńska 1987) and to Kirkbya bendensis Harlton, 1933 from the Pennsylvanian of USA ( Harlton 1933) but the ornamentation in the Texan specimens is very different by a very fine reticulation.

Occurrence
