The annelid of the genus Rotularia is a common element of Jurassic to Early Tertiary shallow-water marine faunas but few studies have been conducted on its palaeoecologic and stratigraphic significance. The polychaete Rotularia spirulaea Lamarck, 1818, from the middle-late Cuisian Yoncali formation of the Çankiri Basin, Central Anatolia is here described and its mode of life and palaeobiogeographic distribution are discussed. This is the first polychaete annelids species Rotularia spirulaea Lamarck, 1818 discovered in Turkey, Rotularia spirulaea Lamarck is a stratigraphically and geographically widely distributed species.
