description

The bradoriids Hipponicharion aff, hispanicum and Wimanicharion aff. matthewi are reported from the lower and middle Cambrian strata of the Cadenas Ibericas, Spain. The genus Hipponicharion seems to be restricted to the Acadobaltic Province. Wimanicharion has been recorded from Sweden and Canada (Nova Scotia). The new discovery of Wimanicharion in Spain indicates its similar palaeobiogeographical distribution to Hipponicharion.
