New group of the Early Palaeozoic conodont-like fossils [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2015
The paper is devoted to the Upper Cambrian and Tremadocian organophosphatic microfossils which were hitherto treated as conodonts and assigned mainly to the genera Coelocerodontus and Viirodus.

An Ordovician Assemblage of Cool Water‐Adapted Paleotropical Ostracods Suggests an Early Psychrosphere

open access: yesIsland Arc, Volume 34, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
ABSTRACT An ostracod assemblage from the Late Ordovician (Katian) Phu Ngu Formation of northern Vietnam, South China paleoplate, yields typical Baltic and Laurentian‐affinity genera together with some endemic forms. Detailed paleontological and sedimentary analysis of the Phu Ngu Formation suggests it was deposited in a deeper marine forearc setting ...

First record of Podichnus in orthide brachiopods from the Lower Ordovician (Tremadocian) of NW Argentina and its relation to the early use of an ethological strategy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Well preserved etchings from the pedicle attachment of brachiopods occur on orthide brachiopod shells from Lower Ordovician (Tremadocian) of NW Argentina. Under the name Podichnus conicus isp. n.

Early Ordovician (Tremadocian) faunas and biostratigraphy of the Gerd-Kuh section, eastern Alborz, Iran

open access: yes, 2015
The Tremadocian of the East Alborz Region is dominated by condensed fine clasticsediments. These beds have yielded low to medium diversity trilobite associations, which belong to theolenid, nileid and raphiophorid biofacies, characteristic of an outer ...

Lower–Middle Ordovician brachiopods from the Eastern Cordillera of Peru: evidence of active faunal dispersal across Rheic and Iapetus oceans

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 10, Issue 5, September/October 2024.
Abstract New Floian and early middle Darriwilian brachiopod assemblages of the San José Formation of the Eastern Cordillera of Peru are presented. A new genus and species, Apurimella santiagoi, and two new species, Phragmorthis henrylunae and Nocturnellia ashaninka, are described.

How to engineer a habitable planet: the rise of marine ecosystem engineers through the Phanerozoic

open access: yesPalaeontology, Volume 67, Issue 5, September/October 2024.
Abstract Ecosystem engineers are organisms that modify their physical habitats in a way that alters resource availability and the structure of the communities they live in. The evolution of ecosystem engineers over the course of Earth history has thus been suggested to have been a driver of macroevolutionary and macroecological changes that are ...

Palaeoscolecids from the Ludlow Series of Leintwardine, Herefordshire (UK): the latest occurrence of palaeoscolecids in the fossil record

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 10, Issue 3, May/June 2024.
Abstract The documentation of cuticular micro‐ornament is vital for the taxonomic assignment of palaeoscolecids: vermiform lower Palaeozoic ecdysozoans interpreted as stem‐group priapulans or early diverging panarthropods. This is due to the absence of the character‐rich proboscis and tail hooks in palaeoscolecid material not from Burgess Shale‐type ...

Improving Mercury Systematics With Molybdenum and Vanadium Enrichments: New Insights From the Cambrian‐Ordovician Boundary

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 8, 28 April 2024.
Abstract The Cambro‐Ordovician interval marks a significant transition from extinction to bio‐diversification in deep time. However, the relationship of bio‐transition to volcanism, commonly characterized by mercury (Hg) systematics in sedimentary records, has not been examined.

Late Tremadocian (Early Ordovician) reefs on the Yangtze Platform, South China, and their geobiological implications: a synthesis

open access: yesJournal of Palaeogeography, 2021
This study provides an overview and discussion of controls on the distribution of organic reefs during the Early Ordovican Period, in the Yangtze Platform, a region of epicontinental sedimentary rocks in South China.
