This article describes and names a new species of the Early Devonian-early Middle Devonian (late LochkovianEifelian) brachiopod genus Carinagypa, here named Carinagypa robecki n. sp. The species occurs in a measured section of an unnamed late Emsian age (late late Early Devonian) limestone unit exposed in the Shellabarger Pass area, Talkeetna C-6 1;63,360 scale quadrangle, Denali National Park & Preserve, south-central Alaska. It is part of a diverse brachiopod fauna found in the basal strata of the Mystic sequence of the accreted Farewell terrane. The new species is closest in external form to Carinagypa indirigica (Sidyachenko in Alekseeva et al., 1996) from the Kolyma region of northeastern Russia.
