| Sumario: | The discovery of Didymograptus (Didymograptus) artus Elles and Wood in the Ordovician section of the Vidrias Cape (Atlantic coast of Spain), constitutes the first record of early Oretanian (= mid Darriwilian) rocks in the Cantabrian Zone of the Iberian Massif. The fossil locality lies in a shaly intercalation towards the middle part of an easternmost equivalent of the «Sabugo Quartzite» of the Navia Domain (West Asturian-Leonese Zone), so far unknown in the reference section for the Ordovician of the Cantabrian Zone of the nearby Peñas Cape. Correlations of the studied strata by previous authors are also reviewed, and the existence of a fault is suggested to occur between the «Peñas» and «Vidrias» members of the Luarca Formation on the famous section of the Peñas Cape |
