Maurits Lindström

Maurits Lindström (10 May 1932 – 14 November 2009) was a Swedish geologist and paleontologist. Lindström's initial work was divided among two topics conodont paleontology and the structural geology of the Scandinavian Caledonides in Lappland.

In 1970, he described the conodont families Cordylodontidae, Gondolellidae, Proconodontidae and Rhipidognathidae. In 1971, he described the conodont genera Baltoniodus, Microzarkodina and Paracordylodus. Lindström published conodont studies up to 1987 after which he only supervised students working with conodonts.

He received the Pander Medal awarded by the Pander Society, an informal organisation founded in 1967 for the promotion of the study of conodont palaeontology.
