Echinoderm Lagerstätten from high-latitude Gondwana – filling the gap in the Ordovician diversification of the phylum [PDF]
The phylum Echinodermata is a major component of marine ecosystems since the first appearance of echinoderms in the Cambrian. Like other metazoan phyla, echinoderms underwent two major evolutionary pulses in early Palaeozoic times: the Cambrian Explosion

Population structure of graptolite assemblages [PDF]
Graptolite rhabdosomes display a diverse suite of morphologies. The range of morphotypes present within most moderate to high diversity assemblages from the Ordovician and Silurian is similar, despite the different taxonomic composition of the faunas at ...

Early Tremadocian graptolites from the Arivechi area, Sonora, northern Mexico [PDF]
Graptolites from the early Tremadocian Anisograptus matanensis Biozone are identified from east-central Sonora, northwestern Mexico, within a carbonate-shelf succession deposited on the southwestern continental shelf margin of Laurentia.

The Evae transgression: a major event? [PDF]
The most extensive sea-level event of the Early Ordovician is known as the Evae transgression. During the highstand of this event, the conodont index species Oepikodus evae reached its acme and often coincided with the peak in conodont generic diversity.
