Abstract
<p>The Middle to Upper Carboniferous Akiyoshi Limestone Group is widely distributed in the Mt. Maruyama area, Mine City, Yamaguchi Prefecture.</p><p>Limestones in this area are variable in their organic compositions, such as rugose corals, ammonoids, phylloid algae, brachiopods and fusulinids.</p><p>Lithologic facies and sedimentary features indicate a paleoenvironment of the reef flat or by-pass margin between the fore reef part of the Akiyoshi organic reef complex and open sea.</p><p>Locality MA66 is abundant in fusulinid species of primitive type- "Triticites". Four species, including three new ones can be discriminated as follows: Protriticites yanagidai Y. Ota, sp. nov., Protriticites masamichii Y. Ota, sp. nov., Protriticites toriyamai Y. Ota, sp. nov., and Protriticites aff. matsumotoi (Kanmera).</p>
