Chronostratigrahy of Acritarchs and Chitinozoans from upper Ordovician Strata from the Robat-e Gharabil Area, NE Alborz Mountains, Northern Khorassan Province: Stratigraphic and Paleogeographic Implications [PDF]
The Palaeozoic rock units mainly, Ghelli, Niur, Padeha, Khoshyeilagh and Mobark formations are well-exposed in the north of Robat-e Gharabil village. 116 out of 157 surface samples were analyzed to determine aged relationships of Ghelli Formation.

Possible metazoan egg fossils from the Darriwilian (Middle Ordovician) of Baltoscandia [PDF]
The Baltoscandian lower Palaeozoic succession is well known for the abundance, diversity and excellent preservation of various groups of microfossils, such as acritarchs, chitinozoans, scolecodonts and conodonts.

Ordovician geology and stratigraphy of China: A synthesis [PDF]
China presently comprises several tectonic blocks and regions assembled over geological time and having independent histories. During the Ordovician, these blocks included South China, North China, Tarim, Qaidam, Junggar, Qiangtang-Qamdo, Lhasa and ...

Chitinozoan Contribution to the Ordovician and Lower Silurian Paleobiogeography [PDF]
Relationships between various Lower Silurian chitinozoan assemblages are established using statistical methods such as calculation of the number of species in common and similarity coefficient. Conclusions clearly indicate that Eastern Canadian chitinozoan fauna are distinct from those of the north Gondwana margin.

The Llandovery–Wenlock boundary interval in west-central continental Estonia: an example from the Suigu (S-3) core section [PDF]
A gap corresponding to several conodont and chitinozoan zones occurs in the Llandovery–Wenlock boundary interval in some sections in the western coastal region of Estonia and on islands in the Muhu Strait.

A bio- and chemostratigraphic search for the Mid-Ludfordian Carbon Isotope Excursion interval in the Ludlow of the Ohesaare core, Estonia [PDF]
For years, the Ohesaare core section and its rich fossil assemblages have enticed researchers to suggest various ideas about Silurian stratigraphy in the East Baltic despite several sedimentary gaps occurring through the Ludlow interval in particular ...

Chitinozoan dynamics and biostratigraphy in the Väo Formation (Darriwilian) of the Uuga Cliff, Pakri Peninsula, NW Estonia [PDF]
The distribution of chitinozoans in the Väo Formation (Lasnamägi and Uhaku regional stages, Darriwilian) of the Uuga Cliff, Pakri Peninsula, NW Estonia, was investigated from 62 samples.

A multiproxy study of the Puhmu core section (Estonia, Upper Ordovician): consequences for stratigraphy and environmental interpretation [PDF]
A multiproxy study of the Katian and Hirnantian in the Puhmu core in NE Estonia resulted in new data on chitinozoan and brachiopod biostratigraphy. Some mass occurrences of dasycladacean algae are tied to small early Katian ‘reefs’.
