Abstract: Little is known about the paleobiogeography of Cambrian brachiopods.Cooperative studies have shown the presence of three new genera of inarticulate acrotretid brachiopods in Upper Cambrian rocks of both Australia and the United States, but none of their species are common to both regions.Ouadrisonia (type species O. minor), Dactylotreta (type species D. redunca), and Anabolotreta (type species A. tegula) are erected and their type species described from etched material. 2The University of Kansas Paleontological Contributions-Paper 93 land, rocks that are of approximately the same age as those investigated by Rowell (Opik, 1966; Henderson, 1976).Although some information is available on the stratigraphie distribution of brachiopods from the Upper Cambrian of the North American craton (Palmer, 1954;
