EARLY LLANDOVERY CHITINOZOANS FROM JORDAN [PDF]
Abstract: Chitinozoans recovered from cores BG‐14 and WS‐6 in southern and eastern Jordan are described. Sample ages are well‐constrained by graptolite data to the ascensus‐acuminatus and vesiculosus graptolite biozones. Eighteen chitinozoan taxa are recognized, with Spinachitina fragilis, Plectochitina nodifera, Ancyrochitina laevaensis and ...

A Cenozoic-style scenario for the end-Ordovician glaciation [PDF]
The end-Ordovician was an enigmatic interval in the Phanerozoic, known for massive glaciation potentially at elevated CO2 levels, biogeochemical cycle disruptions recorded as large isotope anomalies and a devastating extinction event.

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.
