Lower Silurian biostratigraphy of the Viirelaid core, western Estonia [PDF]
The distribution of five groups of fossils in the upper Llandovery (Telychian) and Wenlock of the Viirelaid core section, Estonia, is presented and discussed in terms of their biozones (conodonts and chitinozoans) and mutual positions (scolecodonts ...

Palynostratigraphy and palaeoecology of the Niur Formation, Tikdar section, northwest of Kerman, Central Iran [PDF]
Diverse, moderately to well-preserved palynomorphs including acritarchs (sensu stricto), prasinophytes cyst, chitinozoans, scolecodonts, and spores occur in some surface samples (90 meters thereof) of the Niur Formation (200 m thick) at the Tikdar ...

Abstract The collisional evolution of the micro‐blocks in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau is relatively well constrained. However, the reason why a fragment of the North China Block, the Olongbuluke Block, became separated from North China by the Central Qilian Block (a fragment of the South China Block) remains unclear.

Abstract A new exceptionally preserved euarthropod, Keurbos susanae gen. et sp. nov. from the Upper Ordovician Soom Shale Konservat‐Lagerstätte of South Africa, is described herein. Two specimens exhibit an unusual preservation style such that the cuticular exoskeleton is preserved in low relief but retains high‐fidelity details, whereas the internal ...

Precise chitinozoan dating of Ordovician impact events in Baltoscandia [PDF]
Abstract. The chitinozoan biostratigraphy of four Ordovician impact craters has been investigated. Three of these (Tvären, Kärdla and Lockne) contain complete sequences of early Caradoc age, while the Granby crater contains rocks of late Arenig age yielding two bentonitic horizons at their top. Chitinozoans, together with graptolites and other planktic

The Llandovery (Silurian) conodont species diversity on the Upper Yangtze Platform, South China [PDF]
Conodonts are one of the stratigraphically most important fossil groups in the Silurian Period. We examine the regional diversity dynamics of the Llandovery condonts on the Upper Yangtze Platform.
