Abstract :Entomozoacean ostracods insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(pelagic socalled fingerprint-ostracods); have recently been observed for the first time in Upper Devonian sediments of the Darlık B Section from the İstanbul region, north-western Turkey. These new assemblages consist of Entomoprimitia nitida, Entomoprimitia sartenaeri, Entomoprimitia concentrica, Franklinella calcarata, Waldeckella erecta?, Rabienella n. sp. c, aff. reichi sensu Rabien & Rabitz 1958, Rabienella reichi, Richterina insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Volkina); zimmermanni and Nehdentomis pseudorichterina and can be dated as Late Frasnian Entomoprimitia sartenaeri Zone insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(= variostriata Zone sensu Rabien 1954);. These entomozoacean ostracods indicate a faunal relationship with Germany insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Rhenish Schiefergebirge, Harz Mountains, Thuringia);, Poland insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Holy Cross Mountains);, N France-Belgium insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Ardennes);, Volgo-Ural Region and South China in the Late Devonian.
