Devonian interval in Missouri [PDF]
Introductory In central Missouri Carboniferous stratigraphy presents unusual relationships. Nowhere else in the whole region does the same succession of Paleozoic terranes prevail. Beginning with the typical Chouteau limestone as the basal member, the Carboniferous sequence rests directly on Ordovician dolomites. In other parts of the state the hiatus

A Classification of Protective Structures in Fossil Bryozoans
The protective structures of bryozoans representing four orders—Trepostomata, Cryptostomata, Fenestrata, and Cheilostomata—were analyzed and classified for the first time based on functional criteria.

The tooth patterning logic, which cannot be inferred from surface morphology, is revealed by visualizing buried tooth remnants in 3D. The primary teeth are added labially, initially organized in radial rows, which transition into linear rows where the coronoid becomes slender.

Convergent allometric trajectories in Devonian Carboniferous unornamented Polygnathus conodonts [PDF]
The shape of feeding structures is reputed to be under functional constraints related to the processing of food particles. Their morphological variation through evolution and ontogeny may thus provide an insight into changes in occlu sal dynamics and ...

We present the rationale for a cross‐disciplinary investigation addressing the ‘Devonian plant hypothesis’ which proposes that the evolutionary appearance of trees with deep, complex rooting systems represents one of the major biotic feedbacks on ...

The Chamrousse Ophiolite (Western Alps, France): Relict of a Devono‐Carboniferous Ocean
ABSTRACT The Chamrousse ophiolite (Western Alps, France) is one of the best‐preserved Variscan relicts of Cambro‐Ordovician oceanisation within the northern Gondwana margin. This study presents new in situ U–Pb isotope analyses on zircon grains from that ophiolite, revealing that the oceanic stage in Chamrousse has occurred 150 Ma later than estimated.

Was the Formation of the North Anatolian Fault Influenced by the Aegean Extension?
ABSTRACT The North Anatolian Fault (NAF), one of the most prominent plate boundary continental fault systems on Earth, facilitates the westward movement of the Anatolian microplate into the Aegean region. The temporal and spatial evolution of the NAF is important for understanding the mechanism of escape tectonics during plate interaction in active ...

The evolution of muscle spindles
Abstract Muscle spindles are stretch‐sensitive mechanoreceptors found in the skeletal muscles of most four‐limbed vertebrates. They are unique amongst sensory receptors in the ability to regulate their sensitivity by contraction of the intrafusal muscle fibres on which the sensory endings lie.
