The appearance of Rosenella (stromatoporoid sponge) in Baltica: new species from the Pirgu Stage (Katian, Upper Ordovician) of Estonia [PDF]
The Katian Age, part of the Late Ordovician Epoch, was a period of significant stromatoporoid diversification. However, their fossil record is often less continuous, hindering our understanding of their diversity and diversification.

The Pisanyi Kamen’ section on the Un'ya River, Northern Urals, from the Lower Asselian stratigraphic interval is the central part of a succession of skeletal mounds that are composed of biocementstones. Palaeoecological analysis allows the pioneer stages of the ecological succession, representing the stabilisation and colonisation stages, to be ...

Revisiting the Cupidito unit (Cupido Formation) along peritidal carbonates from northeastern Mexico
Depositional episodes are readily identified along representative localities of the Lower Cretaceous Cupido platform in northeastern Mexico. The basal part of the Cupido Formation exhibits a progradational reef platform that, at the upper limit, is ...

Palaeobiology, ecology, and distribution of stromatoporoid faunas in biostromes of the mid-Ludlow of Gotland [PDF]
Six well exposed mid−Ludlow stromatoporoid−dominated reef biostromes in four localities from the Hemse Group in southeastern Gotland, Sweden comprise a stromatoporoid assemblage dominated by four species; Clathrodictyon mohicanum, “Stromatopora” bekkeri,

Interrelations between stromatoporoid morphometric features - a quantitative approach based on specimens from the Silurian of Podolia (Ukraine) and the Devonian of the Holy Cross Mountains (Poland) [PDF]
Morphometric attributes of 705 stromatoporoid specimens from a number of exposures from the Silurian of Podolia (Ukraine) and the Devonian of the Holy Cross Mountains (Poland), representing a wide array of shallow water carbonate sedimentary environments,

First report of an aulaceratid stromatoporoid from the Ordovician of Baltica [PDF]
The aulaceratid stromatoporoids first appeared in the late Middle Ordovician and had achieved a worldwide distribution in tropical to subtropical shallow-marine environments by the Late Ordovician; however, their presence in Baltica has not been ...

Rugose corals across the Devonian-Carboniferous boundary in NW Turkey [PDF]
An uppermost Famennian (Strunian) coral assemblage has been recovered in the middle part of the Yılanlı Formation of the Istanbul Zone (Zonguldak and Bartın areas, NW Turkey). In the Bartın area, the studied fossiliferous interval corresponds to a c.

ASYNCHRONOUS DEVELOPMENT OF REEFS AND REEF-BUILDING BIOTA. PALEOZOIC
This work analyses the development of reefs, which represent thick morphologically expressed carbonate massifs created by the activity of frame-forming organisms. Major stages in the development of reefs include the periods of Early Cambrian, Ordovician,
