Abstract: The Brachiopod "Spirigera" deslongchampsi Suess has so far been known only in the Northern Calcareous Alps. It is the first find of this fossil on the Western Carpathians. The brachiopod belongs to the family Spirigerellidae Grunt 1965 (sensu Dagys 1974) and it is most probably a new genus. It is a very rarely occurring fossil (only a very few speciments were found altogether) so its generic identification for the time being remains doubtful. According to macro and mainly micro fossils the pebble material is of the Early Rhaetian age. We assume that it derives from a transitional type between Hallstatt Limestones and Zlambach Beds facies.
