Digestive and appendicular soft-parts, with behavioural implications, in a large Ordovician trilobite from the Fezouata Lagerstätte, Morocco [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Trilobites were one of the most successful groups of marine arthropods during the Palaeozoic era, yet their soft-part anatomy is only known from a few exceptionally-preserved specimens found in a handful of localities from the Cambrian to the Devonian ...

Cretaceous lacewing larvae with binocular vision demonstrate the convergent evolution of sophisticated simple eyes

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 441-452, February 2026.
We report three ca. 100 million‐year‐old lacewing larvae with extraordinarily large stemmata. One of them additionally has a very wide head, which represents a previously unknown morphology. The arrangement of the stemmata indicates stereoscopic vision in these predatory larvae.

Exceptionally preserved Cambrian trilobite digestive system revealed in 3D by synchrotron-radiation X-ray tomographic microscopy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The Cambrian 'Orsten' fauna comprises exceptionally preserved and phosphatised microscopic arthropods. The external morphology of these fossils is well known, but their internal soft-tissue anatomy has remained virtually unknown.

Palaeoscolecids from the early Cambrian Guanshan biota, Yunnan Province, China

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Palaeoscolecidomorphs (Palaeoscolecida and Cricocosmiidae) are widespread early Palaeozoic worms crucial to understanding the early evolution of Ecdysozoa. They are well known from the early–middle Cambrian of the Yangtze Platform of South China, but research has disproportionately focused on the well‐known Cambrian Stage 3 Chengjiang biota of

Trilobites, their traces and associated sedimentary structures as indicators of the Cambrian palaeoenvironment of the Ociesęki Range (Holy Cross Mountains, Poland) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Enrolled specimens of trilobite species Strenuella polonica, partly preserved within their escape structures and burrows from the Cambrian Series 2 Ociesęki Sandstone Formation, are described. The specimens are interpreted as buried during storm episodes.

Comparing the Development and Viability of Horseshoe Crab Eggs Laid in Beach and Salt Marsh Habitats

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
Recent research has found that horseshoe crabs spawn regularly in salt marshes. However, it remained unclear if eggs laid in salt marsh sediments are viable. In this study, we show that eggs laid in salt marsh habitats develop similarly to those laid in beach habitats, suggesting that salt marshes are viable spawning habitats for horseshoe crabs ...

Scotland : Hebridean Terrane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Cambrian succession in the Hebridean Terrane extends for about 200 km from near Durness on the northern coast of the Scottish mainland SSW to Skye (Fig. 14). The classic account of the whole region is the memoir by Peach et al.

Tectonics, geology and origins of Te Riu‐a‐Māui / Zealandia

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 531-567, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Te Riu‐a‐Māui / Zealandia is a 95% submerged, five million square km southern hemisphere continent that includes the islands of New Zealand and New Caledonia. For the last 45 million years (Ma) Zealandia has been cut by the Pacific‐Australian plate boundary which today changes character from a west‐dipping subduction zone in the north to ...
