Abstract. Cyclograptidae (=Idiotubidae)
are described from the Ordovician to
Silurian erratic boulders of Poland. Some
problems involved in tuboid taxonomy and
colony organization are considered. One
new genus (Kozlowskitubus gen.n.) and
three new species (Epigraptus eisenacki
sp.n., E. kozlowskii sp.n., Dendrotubus
bulmani sp.n.) are erected. Names
Idiotubus Kozłowski, 1949 and
Idiotubidae Kozłowski, 1949, were
recognized for junior synonyms of
Epigraptus Eisenack, 1941, and
Cyclograptidae Bulman, 1938,
respectively.
