Special Papers in Palaeontology, Devonian Spore Assemblages from North-Western Gondwana
Taxonomy and Biostratigraphy

Skickas inom 11-20 vardagar
A Guide to the identification and description for 205 spore taxa and forms the basis for a refined biostratigraphy and palaeogeography Devonian spores from 16 subsurface successions in Saudi Arabia and North Africa are systematically documented to characterize assemblages for the northern margin of western Gondwana. The taxonomic study provides the identification and description for 205 spore taxa and forms the basis for a refined biostratigraphy and palaeogeography. Most species are illustrated by multiple specimens to document morphological variation and the effects of taphonomy. Numerous species have considerable morphological variability and require examination of larger populations to become fully understood. These spores show intergrading morphological variation and were grouped into morphons. Although a majority of spore species were previously described, many others are new and endemic to north-western Gondwana.
Special Papers in Palaeontology, The Late Ordovician Brachiopods of Southern Pembrokeshire and Adjacent South-Western Wales
Häftad, Engelska, 2014
584 kr
Tillfälligt slut
Although the Upper Ordovician shelly faunas of South Pembrokeshire (Avalonia at that time) have been studied for over 150 years, the brachiopods have never before been properly documented. This monograph erects 16 new species and substantially revises the systematics of the rest of the brachiopod fauna (about 75 species in all). The faunas are compared with other contemporaneous Avalonian brachiopod assemblages, and two major faunal turnovers are recognised. Implications for understanding better the palaeogeography of Avalonia, Laurussia, Baltica, and north-western Gondwana are discussed.
Special Papers in Palaeontology, Trilobites from the Silurian Reefs in North Greenland

Varied and well preserved trilobite fossils are described from Silurian reefs in North Greenland. The faunas comprise 23 new species, and four new genera. The large number of new taxa reflects a previous lack of sampling of Silurian reef trilobite biotas.

The Holy Cross Mountains of Poland yield an abundance of marine Devonian fossils that have been studied and described since the mid-nineteenth century. Reef-formers are a major part of the overall fauna, and the stromatoporoids and the rugose corals have already received full attention. This publication extends full descriptive cover to the third of the important reef-building groups, the tabulate corals.
Special Papers in Palaeontology, Smithian (Early Triassic) ammonoids from the Salt Range (Pakistan) and Spiti (India)

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This volume comprises 2 substantial papers that describe the Early Triassic (Smithian) ammonoids from the Salt Range (Pakistan) and the Spiti region of India. Ammonoids are abundant and well-preserved at many localities in these regions, and their highly resolved evolutionary succession is the key to stratigraphic correlation between the 2 areas, and with other Tethyan sequences such as those in southern Tibet and south China. Many new key genera and species are described.
