Genus Loupanus Carter, 1993
Type species: Loupanus thompsoni Carter, 1993 , Haida Gwaii , British Columbia, Canada, Sandiland Formation, Rhaetian .
Remarks.—The Loupanus has been so far described only in the Rhaetian ( Carter 1993) and in the Bathonian ( Yeh and Pessagno 2013) but a Rhaetian to Tithonian stratigraphic range has been proposed ( O’Dogherty et al. 2009). The lower Pliensbachian species ( Loupanus pliensbachicus sp. nov. and Loupanus sp. 1 ) described below represent the first record of Loupanus in the Lower Jurassic.
