Developmental traits and life strategy of redlichiid trilobites. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The developmental mode of four redlichiid trilobites is summarized, based upon exceptionally well‐preserved, articulated specimens from Cambrian Series 2 (stages 3 and 4) strata in southwestern China and South Australia. These relatively complete developmental sequences indicate a balanced rate in segment increase and addition to the thorax ...

Abstract Trilobites are an abundant group of Palaeozoic marine euarthropods that appear abruptly in the fossil record c. 521 million years ago. Quantifying the development of morphological variation (or ‘disparity’) through time in fossil groups like trilobites is critical in understanding evolutionary radiations such as the Cambrian ‘explosion’. Here,

Abstract New, accurately located and well‐preserved agnostid trilobite material has been collected from the type locality of the Drumian (middle Cambrian, Miaolingian) Manuels River Formation, Newfoundland, Canada. The well‐exposed grey to black shales containing the fauna were deposited on the former microcontinent Avalonia.

Phylogenetic response of naraoiid arthropods to early–middle Cambrian environmental change
Abstract The Cambrian Period, primarily known for animal life diversifying, experienced global extinctions. Pulses of extinction in Cambrian Series 2 are exemplified by the disappearance of archaeocyath sponges and olenelline and redlichiid trilobites.

New Information about the Internal Anatomy and Taphonomic History of Trilobites Revealed through CT Scanning [PDF]
X-ray computed tomography (CT or XCT) scans were made of eight trilobite species hypothesized to have internal remains preserved through early diagenetic processes. Specimens range in age from Cambrian Epoch 3 to Late Ordovician.

A revision of Devonian trilobites from Belgium - Part 1 The Genera Cornuproetus and Radiaspis [PDF]
Belgian Devonian trilobites have long been known, although they remain comparatively poorly documented. A revision of the obsolete nomenclature seems long overdue, and added to that, critical evaluations of listings of trilobite taxa by MAILLIEUX over ...
