Abstract—

A new conodont species Icriodus olgaborisovnae sp. nov. is described from the Upper Eifelian Mosolovian Regional Stage of the Voronezh Anteclise on the basis of material from four boreholes. Previously, similar forms were identified as I. arkonensis Stauffer, 1938; however, the studies showed that the true I. arkonensis occurs in later rocks, in the Vorobyevian Regional Stage of the Givetian Stage of the Middle Devonian.
