EARLY PERMIAN BRACHIOPODA AND MOLLUSCA FROM THE NORTHWEST HIMALAYA, INDIA
Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2017 The present paper describes and illustrates the Early Permian marine fauna collected from the northwest Himalaya (Lahul, India). Brachiopoda dominate the fauna in terms of abundance and include the two new species Tivertonia chumikensis and Neochonetes ...

The complete mitogenome of the inarticulate brachiopod Glottidia pyramidata reveals insights into gene order variation, deviant ATP8 and mtORFans in the Brachiopoda [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021 Brachiopods are a clade of marine organisms with a tremendously diverse and abundant fossil record but with fewer than 500 species extant today. Even if a better understanding of their biology and genetics could help to test hypotheses about their ...

The Biodiversity of Peter I Island-The Most Remote Island in the World. [PDF]
Ecol EvolPeter I Island is one of the most isolated and least visited islands on earth; lying within the Antarctic Polar Front but over 420 km from continental Antarctica. Here we assess the biodiversity of the island from both previous records and our own BioBlitz in January 2022.

Paleoecology of the first Devonian-like sclerobiont association on Permian brachiopods from southeastern Mexico [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2021 This paper describes a sclerobiont association from the Paso Hondo Formation (Roadian, middle Permian), Chiapas, Mexico. Different marine invertebrates such as hederelloids, microconchids, bryozoans, and crinoids (represented by holdfasts) encrusted ...

An Increase in Animal Diversity was Facilitated by Ecologically-Driven Brain Complexity Throughout the Cambrian. [PDF]
BioessaysThe Brain‐First Hypothesis suggests that the Cambrian transition from animals with simple body plans and simple brains to more complex animals was driven by a selection for brains with increased neural processing, following increased ecological complexity, and the networks underlying brain development were co‐opted to pattern other complex systems ...

Morphology and relationships of the enigmatic stenothecoid pan-brachiopod Stenothecoides—new data from the middle Cambrian Burgess Shale Formation [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2021 Bulk sampling of middle Cambrian carbonate units in the lower Burgess Shale Formation (Wuliuan) and the upper Wheeler Formation (Drumian) in Utah have yielded abundant silicified stenothecoids.

Brachiopod Fauna from the Deep Mediterranean Sea: Distribution Patterns and Ecological Preferences
Diversity, 2022 Compared to their fossil counterparts, living brachiopods are investigated far less often, due to their occurrence in remote environments such as dark caves or deep environments.
