Brachyprion (Brachyprion) ellisensis
Discussion
Twenhofel (1928) originally named this species Rafinesquina ellisensis, which included specimens from the Ellis Bay and Becscie formations. Dewing recognizes the specimens from these two formations as different and renames them (1999). The specimens from the Becscie Formation are thus renamed here as Brachyprion (Brachyprion) ellisensis.
