Evolutionary–phylogenetic pathway of the Cretaceous ammonite genus Aegocrioceras and its relationship to Juddiceras spp. and Crioceratites spp.

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 7, Issue 4, Page 2113-2139, November 2021., 2021
Abstract The systematics of ammonoids are complicated by their large degree of intraspecies variation, which complicates a stable validation of species. Aegocrioceras is a heteromorph ammonite from the Lower Saxony Basin in the Hauterivian Boreal, and a prime example of a genus with an unstable internal systematic and external relationship to other ...

Ups and downs of belemnite diversity in the Early Jurassic of Western Tethys

open access: yesPalaeontology, Volume 64, Issue 2, Page 263-283, March 2021., 2021
Abstract Although belemnites form a major clade of extinct cephalopods, the early stage of their diversification remains poorly known in time and space. Here we investigate the first diversification episodes of belemnites (order Belemnitida) using a new species‐level database encompassing the Hettangian–Aalenian interval (Early Jurassic – earliest ...

Hettangian, Early Jurassic coleoids from West Somerset, SW England—filling a gap in the coleoid record of NW Europe [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica
The semi-articulated remains of two specimens of the putative diplobelid coleoid species of Clarkeiteuthis and a coleoid of uncertain affinity (possibly a phragmoteuthid) are described from a single bed in the Blue Lias Formation (early Hettangian ...

Intraspecific variation and new morphological characters revealed by multimodal imaging analysis on the Late Cretaceous coleoid Dorateuthis syriaca [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica
The Cretaceous outcrops of Haqel, Hjoula (Cenomanian) and Sahel Aalma (Santonian) in Lebanon are renowned for their exceptional preservation of coleoid soft tissue in coeval shallow carbonate mud deposits and provide an unmatched opportunity to study ...

First record of non-mineralized cephalopod jaws and arm hooks from the latest Cretaceous of Eurytania, Greece

open access: yesSwiss Journal of Palaeontology, 2020
Due to the lower fossilization potential of chitin, non-mineralized cephalopod jaws and arm hooks are much more rarely preserved as fossils than the calcitic lower jaws of ammonites or the calcitized jaw apparatuses of nautilids. Here, we report such non-

First record of the enigmatic coleoid genus Longibelus from Sakhalin (Far East Russia): a contribution to our understanding of Cretaceous coleoid habitats in the Pacific Realm

open access: yesSwiss Journal of Palaeontology, 2021
A newly collected specimen of the enigmatic coleoid genus Longibelus is recorded from lower Turonian strata along the River Shadrinka in Sakhalin (Russian Far East). To date, this is the first record of Late Cretaceous coleoid cephalopods from the island

The palaeobiology of belemnites – foundation for the interpretation of rostrum geochemistry

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 95, Issue 1, Page 94-123, February 2020., 2020
ABSTRACT Belemnites are an extinct group of Mesozoic coleoid cephalopods with a fossil record ranging from the early Late Triassic [about 240 million years ago (Mya)] to the Cretaceous/Palaeogene boundary (65 Mya). Belemnites were widely distributed, highly abundant and diverse, and an important component of Mesozoic marine food webs.

An Early Triassic gladius associated with soft tissue remains from Idaho, USA—a squid-like coleoid cephalopod at the onset of Mesozoic Era [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica, 2018
We describe an Olenekian (Early Triassic) “fossil squid” belonging to the oldest complex Mesozoic marine biota collected in the Lower Shale unit of the Lower Triassic Thaynes Group in Idaho, USA. The studied specimen shows a tapered structure embedded in

Relationship of Cephalopods Orders Based on Morphological Characters

open access: yesJurnal Kelautan Tropis, 2022
Biodiversity is vital in our daily life. As a maritime country, Indonesian waters harbor many valuable animals such as Cephalopoda. Indonesian waters are rich in various species of cephalopods. Several previous studies on Indonesian cephalopods have been

O enigma da "reação espermatofórica": breve síntese do conhecimento sobre a estrutura e o funcionamento dos espermatóforos dos cefalópodes (Mollusca: Cephalopoda)

open access: yesPapéis Avulsos de Zoologia, 2011
Cefalópodes coleóides (lulas, sépias e polvos) produzem espermatóforos muito complexos que são transferidos à fêmea durante a cópula por meio do hectocótilo, um apêndice modificado nos machos.
