title: Barremian decapod crustaceans from Serre de Bleyton (Drôme, SE France).
abstract: Based on mostly small-sized isolated cheliped fingers, a new decapod crustacean assemblage is described from the Barremian of Serre de Bleyton (Drôme, SE France). The assemblage is composed mostly of representatives of the crab family Dynomenidae. In addition, remains of astacidean lobsters, axiidean shrimps, paguroid hermit crabs and brachyurous crabs of the families Necrocarcinidae and ?Cenomanocarcinidae occur in low numbers.Graptocarcinus moosleitneri(Dynomenidae) and ?Paranecrocarcinus schloegli(Necrocarcinidae) are introduced as new species. They both exhibit presence of multi-setal pores on dactyli that are interpreted as parts of a sieving mechanism used in feeding. The stratigraphic range ofGraptocarcinusis extended herein to the Barremian.
