Evolution of prototype basin and change of tectonic-sedimentary pattern in Paleozoic, Ordos Basin
Shiyou shiyan dizhi, 2022 The Ordos Basin is a craton basin developed based on the Precambrian rift system during Permian. It has experienced two stages of evolution including the Early Paleozoic craton marginal depression and Late Paleozoic intra-craton depression.

The earliest cornulitid on the internal surface of the illaenid pygidium from the Middle Ordovician of Estonia [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2017 The earliest cornulitid Cornulites sp. appears in the Darriwilian (Lasnamägi Regional Stage) of Estonia. Internal annulation is present in all Middle Ordovician cornulitids and could be a plesiomorphic character for the group.
