Palaeobiogeography of Famennian (Late Devonian) bryozoans

Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2010
Abstract Bryozoans were widely distributed in marine habitats of the Famennian (Late Devonian) worldwide. This time interval was marked by gradual change in taxonomic composition of bryozoan faunas, which were insignificantly affected by global events (Upper Kellwasser, Handerberg). Distribution of bryozoan faunas was controlled by intrinsic factors (

A complete insect from the Late Devonian period

Nature, 2012
After terrestrialization, the diversification of arthropods and vertebrates is thought to have occurred in two distinct phases, the first between the Silurian and the Frasnian stages (Late Devonian period) (425-385 million years (Myr) ago), and the second characterized by the emergence of numerous new major taxa, during the Late Carboniferous period ...

Pseudoextinctions in late Devonian proetide trilobites

Historical Biology, 1994
Morphologically similar proetide trilobite genera occur in highest Devonian or lowest Carboniferous and in Middle Devonian strata, but are absent from the intervening Upper Devonian. The similarities have been accounted for either by true phyletic relationship, or by homoeomorphy.

Late Devonian plant communities of North Russia

Review of Palaeobotany and Palynology, 2016
The article summarizes researches on the Late Devonian vegetation based on rich palaeobotanical collections from different localities of northern Russia (North Timan). The composition and the structure of the land plant communities are described. Changes in the vegetation are reported during the Frasnian and Famennian. The most diverse palaeovegetation

Late Devonian glaciation in South America

Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 1985
Abstract An ice age in Famennian (Late Devonian) time is documented by the presence of diamictites with striated, faceted and polished pebbles; rhythmites with dropstones; erratic boulders; and striated pavements and deformed sandstones. The glacigenic beds occur in three huge intracratonic basins (Solimoes, Amazonas and Parnaiba) and in one ...

Late Devonian sphenopsid shows evidence of aquatic adaptations

Current Biology
Vascular plants diversified and adapted to various terrestrial environments during the Silurian and Devonian periods and had formed complex forests by the Middle and Late Devonian1. However, fossil evidence of functional adaptations to aquatic environments remains scarce, from forms with only submerged subterranean parts to fully submerged types ...

Miospore events from late earlyto Late Devonian strata of Western Gondwana

Geobios, 2000
Abstract A miospore zonal scheme for late Early - Late Devonian strata of Western Gondwana is presented. Itis based on the first occurrences of both distinctive zonal taxa or groups of taxa of the most significative biozonations of Southern Euramerica and endemic Western Gondwanan species.
