Original description Diagnosis: Small test. Transverse section with numerous quadratic chambers, without suture; axial section with endothyroid juvenarium slightly prominent on both flanks, and separated of the adult semievolute whorls. No supplementary deposits nor pseudochomata. Aperture terminal round simple. Wall simple, microgranular and thin.
Occurrence: The possible LO is MFZ7 (Pl. 16, fig. 9). The range of Brenckleites fragilis n. gen. n. comb. in Belgium is MFZ8 to lower part of MFZ11 (e.g., Austin et al., 1974, pl. 1, fig. 15; Poty et al., 2006). It is late Tournaisian in Taymir, early Visean in Donbasss (C1 vd2) and Ireland (“V1a”), and Bobrikovsky in age in Kazakhstan (Brenckle & Milkina, 2003, pl. 2, fig. 5).
