Dolerorthis is an extinct genus of hesperorthid brachiopod.[2] The type species of this genus, D. interplicata, was described from the Silurian (Telychian) Osgood Formation (Indiana, United States).[2] Other species belonging to this genus are known from the Ordovician and Silurian of Europe,[3][2][4] Kazakhstan,[5] China[6] and Argentina.[7] It was roughly 4 centimetres (1.6 in) across.
