报道的叶肢介新属(Kenyaestheria gen.nov.)采自肯尼亚Maji ya Chumvi地区的一钻孔,属下三叠统上马几牙楚姆维组(Upper Maji ya Chumvi Formation),其特征为壳瓣后背缘最后几条生长线靠近背缘处形成一个凹缘构造,但生长线在背缘并不反转弯曲,同时具有放射线纹饰,据此将其归于凹缘叶肢介科(Ulugkemiidae).该科是一个灭绝的类群,分布于中泥盆统至上三叠统,古生代的类型都发现于欧亚大陆,晚三叠世的Triasu-lugkemia见于阿根廷,新属首见于早三叠世,也是在南大陆出现的第二例凹缘叶肢介类.孢粉Lunatisporites pel-lucidus和叶肢介Aquilonoglypta-Cornia-Palaeolimnadia-Falsisca组合指示含化石的地层时代为早三叠世早期.
報道的葉肢介新屬(Kenyaestheria gen.nov.)採自肯尼亞Maji ya Chumvi地區的一鑽孔,屬下三疊統上馬幾牙楚姆維組(Upper Maji ya Chumvi Formation),其特徵為殼瓣後揹緣最後幾條生長線靠近揹緣處形成一箇凹緣構造,但生長線在揹緣併不反轉彎麯,同時具有放射線紋飾,據此將其歸于凹緣葉肢介科(Ulugkemiidae).該科是一箇滅絕的類群,分佈于中泥盆統至上三疊統,古生代的類型都髮現于歐亞大陸,晚三疊世的Triasu-lugkemia見于阿根廷,新屬首見于早三疊世,也是在南大陸齣現的第二例凹緣葉肢介類.孢粉Lunatisporites pel-lucidus和葉肢介Aquilonoglypta-Cornia-Palaeolimnadia-Falsisca組閤指示含化石的地層時代為早三疊世早期.

The new genus Kenyaestheria assigned to the family Ulugkemiidae was collected from the Upper Maji ya Chumvi Formation in the Scott Borehole, Maji ya Chumvi of Kenya. It is characterized by possessing a carapace,the last few growth lines of which forming an incurvature at the postero-dorsal margin and with radial linear sculpture. The ulugkemiids are an extinct group ranging from the Middle Devonian to the Upper Triassic. The Paleozoic forms were lived in Eurasia. The Late Triassic Triasulugkemia was reported from Argentina. The new genus is the first record from the Early Triassic and the second record in the southern continents for this group. Both spore-pollen Lunatisporites pellucidus and conchostracan Aquilonoglypta-Cornia-Palaeolimnadia-Falsisca assemblages indicate that the conchostracan-bearing beds are of early Early Triassic in age.
