Abstract;Permian limestones designated as the Nabeyama Formation are exposed in the Kuzu area, Tochigi Prefecture. The limestones are particularly abundant in fusulinaceans but uncommon in rugose corals. The limestone pebbles in the conglomerate that unconformably overlies the Nabeyama Formation commonly yield rugose corals. Yatsengia suzukii sp. nov., Y. sp. indet., and Waagenophyllum (Waagenophyllum) akasakense (Yabe) from the limestone pebbles are here described. These corals were recycled from the Nabeyama Formation.
