Two new trilobites: Ditomopyge roemeri spitsbergensis n. subsp. and Paladin trigonopyge n. sp. are described. D. roemeri spitsbergensis seems to indicate the Upper Carboniferous age for these beds, as its close relatives D. roemeri roemeri (v. Moeller, 1867) and D. grunewaldti (v. Moeller, 1867) are known from the Gzhelian Stage of the Urals, Donetz Basin and Voronezh Region (USSR).
