The evolution of reproduction in Ediacaran-Cambrian metazoans. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The evolution of reproductive style is a fundamental aspect of metazoan life history but has not been explored holistically through the Ediacaran–Cambrian rise of metazoans. Recent molecular clock analyses based on only unequivocal metazoan fossil calibrations suggest that Porifera were present by at least 590 million years ago (Ma), all major

The Ordovician acritarch genus Coryphidium [PDF]
The acritarch genus Coryphidium Vavrdova, 1972 is one of the most frequently recorded acritarch taxa in the Ordovician. The original diagnoses, stratigraphical ranges and geographical distribution of all Coryphidium species are critically evaluated in a review of published literature supplemented by studies of material from the British Isles, Belgium ...

Microfossils in the Ordovician erratic boulders from Southwestern Finland [PDF]
Chitinozoans, ostracods and acritarchs found in four glacially transported limestone boulders from the south-western coast of Finland have been studied in order to test the usefulness of these microfossil groups in age determinations. Also rare specimens

An effective palynological preparation procedure using hydrogen peroxide [PDF]
Most pre-Quaternary palynology samples are currently prepared by demineralization of the sediment/sedimentary rock matrix using hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids (HCl and HF respectively).

The stratigraphy, correlation, provenance and palaeogeography of the Skiddaw Group (Ordovician) in the English Lake District [PDF]
A new lithostratigraphy is presented for the Skiddaw Group (lower Ordovician) of the English Lake District. Two stratigraphical belts are described. Five formations are defined in the Northern Fells Belt, ranging in age from Tremadoc to early Llanvirn.

Small carbonaceous fossils (SCFs) from the Terreneuvian (lower Cambrian) of Baltica [PDF]
We describe a new assemblage of small carbonaceous fossils (SCFs) from diagenetically 9 minimally altered clays and siltstones of Terreneuvian age from the Lontova and Voosi formations of 10 Estonia, Lithuania and Russia.
