Wenlockian trilobites representing at least 15 genera are reported from carbonate strata within the Cape Phillips Formation, Baillie-Hamilton Island. The collections are stratigraphically bounded by the graptolite Zones of Cyrtograptus murchisoni and Monograptus testis. The fauna is generically dominated by lichids, odontopleurids, and cheirurids. Scutelluids, phacopids, dalmanitids, and harpids are notable for their absence. At the familial level the fauna corresponds to one recently discovered from similar age beds of the Mackenzie Mountains, Northwest Territories. The limited quantity and fragmental nature of much of the silicified fauna precludes erection of many new taxa, although four new species described are: Sphaerexochus dimorphus, Dicranogmus skinneri, Hemiarges rohri, and Hemiarges mikulici. Dimorphic pygidia are interpreted as probable sexual dimorphs in Sphaerexochus dimorphus n. sp.

The Christian Elv Formation (Early Ordovician) of Daugaard-Jensen Land, western North Greenland, is formally proposed and recognised from southern Hall Land, in the east, to western Ellesmere Island in the Canadian Arctic Islands, to the west. The formation in its type section includes a shallow water trilobite fauna suggesting a mid-Tremadoc age; conodonts indicate the Rossodus manitouensis Zone af the North American Midcontinent Realm. Two species af hystricurid trilobites are present, of which one, Hystricurus scrofulosus, is dcscribed as a new species. The distribution of Hystricurus followed the early Ordovician palaeo-equator and was not confined by palaeocontinental boundaries. Paraplethopeltis is considered to be a subgcnus af Hystricurus.

Twenty six of the more important species of monograptids (s.l.), retiolitids and Cyrtograptus (from a total fauna of 52 species) are described from Wenlock strata of the Cape Phillips Formation, Canadian Arctic Archipelago. Of this fauna, eight new species or subspecies, Monograptus firmus festinolatus, M. instrenuus, M. opimus, M. testis incomptus, Cyrtograptus falcatus, C. hamatus brevis, C. kolobus and C. pseudomancki, are described and illustrated.Wenlock biostratigraphic zones comprise the Cyrtograptus centrifugus-C. insectus Zone (earliest Wenlock), M. instrenuus-C. kolobus Zone, tentatively divisible into lower and upper subzones, C. perneri-M. opimus Zone possibly divisible into lower and upper subzones, C. lundgreni-M. testis Zone divisible into a lower M. testis incomptus Subzone and an upper M. testis testis Subzone, and the Pristiograptus ludensis Zone (latest Wenlock).
