AI‐assisted identification of stromatoporoids
Stromatoporoid sponge fossils were major diverse reef‐builders in the Palaeozoic Era; their taxonomic identification relies on thin sections examined under transmitted light microscopy, where vertical and transverse skeletal elements reveal diagnostic ...

Palaeozoic stromatoporoids are calcified sponges common between Middle Ordovician and Late Devonian times in reefs and related facies. Taxonomic work is well known, but controversial because of conflict between classification schemes based on the ...

New Data on Conodonts of the Upper Devonian of the Polar Urals (Ostantsovy Section, Malaya Usa River) [PDF]
The main features of the Upper Devonian sediments on the right side of the Ostantsovy Creek (the left tributary of the Malaya Usa River) in the eastern part of the Bielsko-Eletskaya structural formational belt on the western slope of the Polar Urals have

Palaeozoic stromatoporoid diagenesis: a synthesis [PDF]
AbstractPalaeozoic stromatoporoids, throughout their 100-million + year history (Middle Ordovician to Late Devonian and rare Carboniferous), are better preserved than originally aragonite molluscs, but less well-preserved than low magnesium-calcite brachiopods, bryozoans, trilobites and corals.

Stromatoporoid-coral/tubeworm intergrowths in the lowermost Silurian Varbola Formation of Estonia: first evidence of competitive interaction [PDF]
Tabulate corals, particularly auloporids and syringoporids, are commonly found as intergrowths in host stromatoporoids in Palaeozoic shallow marine limestones.

Palaeoecology of corals and stromatoporoids in a late Silurian biostrome in Estonia [PDF]
A middle Ludlow biostrome at Katri, western Estonia, the richest accumulation of corals and stromatoporoids in Estonia, is partly exposed in a coastal section.

New evidence of an early Pridoli barrier reef in the southern part of the Baltic Silurian basin based on three-dimensional seismic survey, Lithuania [PDF]
Reefs and a barrier reef have been newly identified and mapped by three-dimensional (3D) seismic survey in Lithuania. Seismic data analysis has allowed the size and geometry of these reefs to be determined.

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.
