Abstract
Five types of scolecodont microornamentation are recognized: striate, regular, granular, rhombic, and columnar. The connection between the type of ornamentation and the position of the scolecodont element in the jaw is analyzed. The ability of scolecodonts to regenerate is examined based on material from the Devonian of the Voronezh Anteclise.
