Abnormal trilobites from the Silurian and Devonian of Europe

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica
Malformed trilobites have been documented in deposits ranging from the Cambrian to the Permian. Continued examination of novel malformed specimens provides insight into how trilobites recovered from injuries, experienced genetic abnormalities, and ...

Why did the UV-A-induced photoluminescent blue–green glow in trilobite eyes and exoskeletons not cause problems for trilobites? [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2015
The calcitic lenses in the eyes of Palaeozoic trilobites are unique in the animal kingdom, although the use of calcite would have conveyed great advantages for vision in aquatic systems.

The First Quantitative Evidence of Ontogenetic Growth in the Early Cambrian Ecdysozoan Worm Cricocosmia jinningensis Reveals the Earliest Energy Reallocation

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We report the first ontogenetic information for the compression‐preserved Cambrian ecdysozoan worm Cricocosmia jinningensis. Its mosaic growth strategy unifies panarthropod and priapulid developmental patterns. Sclerite allometry reverses at the juvenile‐to‐adult transition, providing the earliest evidence of developmental resource allocation ...

Ancestral patterning of tergite formation in a centipede suggests derived mode of trunk segmentation in trilobites. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Trilobites have a rich and abundant fossil record, but little is known about the intrinsic mechanisms that orchestrate their body organization. To date, there is disagreement regarding the correspondence, or lack thereof, of the segmental units that ...

V.—On the Structure of Trilobites [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Magazine, 1871
In the Geological Magazine for July, 1871, Plate VIII. pp. 289–294, I published an article on the above subject, giving my views of the appendages of Trilobites, and reproducing the figure of Asaphus platycephalus, Stokes, showing traces of eight pairs of locomotory appendages, discovered by Mr.

Recognition of fossil keratose sponges in carbonates using petrographic and machine‐learning classification

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2246-2280, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Filamentous, anastomosing spar‐filled networks in Phanerozoic carbonates have been interpreted as the mineralised remains of keratose (non‐spiculate) sponges, yet their recognition remains contested because fabrics of broadly similar appearance may arise from microbial, diagenetic or physical processes. This study combines direct fossil–modern

The diverse bivalved arthropods of Castle Bank (Darriwilian, Ordovician), Wales

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract The Darriwilian (Didymograptus murchisoni Biozone, Middle Ordovician) Castle Bank Lagerstätte, near Llandrindod, Wales (UK) hosts a diverse assemblage of marine animals, generally under 10 mm in size. Here we provide an overview of the diversity of bivalved arthropods from Castle Bank.
