Moulting Patterns in Trilobites from the Devonian of Paraná Basin [PDF]

open access: yesTerr@ Plural, 2021
In general, trilobites had their moulting performed by the breakdown of the librigena, a region (more external) situated on the cephalon of those animals.

Inferring ancestral range reconstruction based on trilobite records: a study-case on Metacryphaeus (Phacopida, Calmoniidae). [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2018
AbstractMetacryphaeus is a calmoniid trilobite genus from the Devonian Malvinokaffric Realm, exclusive to the Gondwanan regions. It includes eleven species, which are for the first time included here in a single phylogenetic analysis. The resulting hypotheses establish relations among the Metacryphaeus species with few ambiguities, also suggesting the ...

The occurrence of Phacopida trilobites from Pimenteira Formation at João Costa, Piauí, Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesGeologia USP. Série Científica, 2013
The marine macroinvertebrate fossils from the Devonian of the Parnaíba Basin are among the most diverse of Paleozoic of Brazil. In recent years, most revisions on these fossils involved trilobites from the Pimenteira and Cabeças formations, in the ...

The “Metacryphaeus tuberculatusGroup” (Trilobita, Calmoniidae) from the Devonian of the Parnaíba Basin, Brazil

open access: yesAmeghiniana, 2016
Abstract. Calmoniid trilobites of the “Metacryphaeus tuberculatus group” occur in many Devonian localities within the Malvinokaffric Realm. In the Parnaiba Basin, in northeastern Brazil, the group is represented by Metacryphaeus tuberculatus Kozlowski, 1923, and M.

Systematics and biogeography of the “Malvinella group,” Calmoniidae (Trilobita, Devonian)

open access: yesJournal of Paleontology, 1991
Phylogenetic parsimony analysis forms a basis for classification of the Siegenian–Eifelian “Malvinella group,” a monophyletic taxon within the “Metacryphaeus group” of the family Calmoniidae. Fifty-one exoskeletal characters for Metacryphaeus Reed and 12 taxa of the “Malvinella group” yield a shortest length cladogram with a consistency index of 0.51 ...

Systematics and biogeography of the “Metacryphaeus group” Calmoniidae (Trilobita, Devonian), with comments on adaptive radiations and the geological history of the Malvinokaffric Realm

open access: yesJournal of Paleontology, 1993
Phylogenetic parsimony analysis was used to classify the Siegenian–Eifelian “Metacryphaeus group” of the family Calmoniidae. Thirty-eight exoskeletal characters for 16 taxa produced a shortest-length cladogram with a consistency index of 0.49. A classification based on retrieving the structure of this cladogram recognizes nine genera: Typhloniscus ...

Trilobites Calmoniidae de l'Ordovicien supérieur du Maroc et les origines de la Province Malvino‐Cafre

Lethaia, 1987
A re-examination of the trilobite Baniaspis globosa Destombes (Phacopina) from the Ashgill of the Anti-Atlas (Morocco) shows that it has several derived characters which allow us to classify it in the family Calmoniidae. Calmoniids were characteristic members of the Malvino-Kaffric province during the Lower Devonian. Hence we regard the origins of this

Trait-based diversification shifts reflect differential extinction among fossil taxa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Evolution provides many cases of apparent shifts in diversification associated with particular anatomical traits. Three general models connect these patterns to anatomical evolution: (i) elevated net extinction of taxa bearing particular traits, (ii ...
