Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2021 Lower Ordovician brachiopod macrofaunas in Belgium (Avalonia) are seldom collected and studied due to the poor preservation of material. Here we describe a new fauna of linguliformean brachiopods from the Chevlipont Formation (lower Tremadocian) in the ...

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 7, Issue 4, Page 1977-1993, November 2021., 2021 Abstract Conodonts are an extinct group of early vertebrates. Articulated fossils of their feeding apparatus (‘natural assemblages’) are rare, and preserved soft tissues vanishingly so. Here, a primitive conodont with preserved soft tissues is redescribed from the Waukesha Lagerstätte of Wisconsin, USA.

Symmetry in graptolite zooids and tubaria (Pterobranchia, Hemichordata)
Evolution &Development, Volume 23, Issue 6, Page 513-523, November 2021., 2021 Abstract Extant and fossil pterobranchs show distinct symmetry conditions of the individual zooids and their tubaria that are not necessarily comparable. The strict bilateral symmetry in the zooids of extant Cephalodiscida is modified to a considerable anatomical asymmetry in extant Rhabdopleurida. This type of left–right asymmetry can be recognized as

Trilobites and biofacies in the Early–Middle Ordovician of Baltica and a brief comparison with the Yangtze Plate [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2013 Baltica except for Baltoscandia was subject to an early Tremadocian immigration of trilobites similar to that on other plates. In Baltoscandia the Olenid biofacies lingered on until it was replaced by the late Tremadocian Ceratopyge biofacies.

Advances in the Lower Ordovician of the western Iberian Chain, NE Spain [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2023 The western Iberian Chain of NE Spain represents a lateral prolongation of the West Asturian-Leonese Zone. As other proximal sectors fringing NW Gondwana, the chain comprises a conÂformable and continuous FurongianâTremadocian transition, comprising a

Phylogenetic response of naraoiid arthropods to early–middle Cambrian environmental change
Palaeontology, Volume 64, Issue 1, Page 161-177, January 2021., 2021 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.

The Upper Tremadocian (Ordovician) graptoliteBryograptus: taxonomy, biostratigraphy and biogeography [PDF]
Palaeontology, 2010 Abstract: The taxonomy, biostratigraphical and palaeogeographical distribution of the Lower Ordovician graptolite genus Bryograptus is evaluated. Bryograptus is recognized as a distinct triradiate anisograptid with a multiramous, pendent rhabdosome.

δ13C chemostratigraphy in the upper Tremadocian through lower Katian (Ordovician) carbonate succession of the Siljan district, central Sweden [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2014 Based on δ13C data from two drillcores recovered from the Siljan district, we present a first continuous carbon isotope record of the upper Tremadocian–lower Katian limestone succession of central Sweden.
