Abundant but not very well preserved uppermost Cambrian Obolidae King, genus Lingulella Salter dominating, was recovered from recent boring in the Holy Cross Mountains (Góry Świętokrzyskie). One of the aims of this study was to define and discuss some of the available diagno.stic characters for species within lingulellids. Obolus sp. and two species of Lingulella Salter were recognized, Lingulella lepis Salter represented by numerous valves, and L. cf. davisi (M'Coy) occurring sporadically.
