New findings of esthonioporate bryozoans of the species Revalotrypa cf. inopinata, representing one of the oldest bryozoans of Baltoscandia, are described from an outcrop located in Leningrad Oblast' (north-western Russia). The colonies of this species are very small and were extracted from limestone-cemented nodules found in glauconitic sandstones of the lower part of the Joa Member (Paroistodus proteus conodont zone, lowermost Floian, Lower Ordovician). Combined X-ray microtomography and the examination of traditional thin sections under a stereomicroscope and a light microscope were used to study the morphology of this species.
