%X A dasycladalean alga, Salpingoporella nicolacarrasi spec. nov., is described from Santonian limestones of the Mur Formation outcropping in Novi Pazar, Mirdita Zone belt, SW Serbia. The alga, the main axis of which bears tightly packed whorls of numerous laterals, resembles the Triassic Salpingoporella sturi. Calcareous sparry calcite skeleton, likely first aragonitic, is more or less heavily destroyed by a special process of bio-erosion, described under the name of Mur1.
