Endocast and bony labyrinth of a Devonian ‘placoderm’ challenges stem gnathostome phylogeny [PDF]
Our understanding of the earliest evolution of jawed vertebrates depends on a credible phylogenetic framework for the jawed stem gnathostomes collectively known as ‘placoderms’.

A Middle-Late Devonian fish fauna from the Sierra de Perijá, western Venezuela, South America [PDF]
A new Devonian fossil fish fauna from the region of Caño Colorado between the Rio Palmar and Rio Socuy, Sierra de Perijá, Venezuela, comes from two localities and several horizons within the Campo Chico Formation, dated on plants and spores as Givetian ...

Three stages, namely Middle Devonian (I), Early Late Devonian (II) and Late Late Devonian (III), are distin-guished in the evolution of antiarchs (Placodermi, Antiarchi) in the Middle-Late Devonian of Northern Eurasia.

Electroporation‐based delivery of proteins in Penium margaritaceum and other zygnematophycean algae
Abstract Zygnematophycean algae represent the streptophyte group identified as the closest sister clade to land plants. Their phylogenetic position and growing genomic resources make these freshwater algae attractive models for evolutionary studies in the context of plant terrestrialization.

Early Gnathostome Phylogeny Revisited: Multiple Method Consensus. [PDF]
A series of recent studies recovered consistent phylogenetic scenarios of jawed vertebrates, such as the paraphyly of placoderms with respect to crown gnathostomes, and antiarchs as the sister group of all other jawed vertebrates.

ABSTRACT The study examines bioclastic carbonate contourites that arise from the broad spectrum of bottom‐current related sedimentary processes ranging from deposition to erosion. The result of the intermittent accumulation of sediment are thin and condensed successions with abundant hiatuses.

Jensen et al. (1) question evidence presented of a chambered heart within placoderms, citing its small size and apparently ventral atrium. However, they fail to note the belly-up orientation of the placoderm within one nodule, and the variability of ...

Neurocranial anatomy of three unusual placoderms revealed by computed tomography scanning, and their implications for early gnathostomes evolution [PDF]
Placoderms are the only known stem-group jawed vertebrates with jaws and their phylogenetic relationships have become central to the question of how gnathostomes evolved.
