"Antarcticeras from the Early Eocene of Seymour Island (Antarctica) has recently been described as a representative of the ‘Paracoleoidea’, a previously unknown cephalopod subclass. After reinvestigation of the type material of Antarcticeras nordenskjoeldi Doguzhaeva, 2017, the justification of thi...
"Fossils, especially those from marine systems, have long been used to estimate changes in patterns of diversity over time. However, fossils are patchy in their occurrence, so such temporal estimates generally have not included variations due to space. Such a singular examination has the potential ...
"Bryozoans offer one of the few systems in which competitive interactions for living space can be studied in the fossil record. Here, we describe the outcome of competitive overgrowths in a 3-million-year-old bryozoan palaeocommunity encrusting shells of the bivalve Anomia simplex from the lower Ta...
"In some Devonian strata in the eastern Anti-Atlas, fossil invertebrates are abundant, display a high taxonomic diversity and indicate many shifts in palaeoecology. This is reflected in changes in faunal composition of invertebrates and vertebrates. Fossils of jawed vertebrates of late Lochkovian a...
"Data from Hereford–Worcestershire and the West Midlands were used to study the Homerian carbon isotope excursion (Silurian) and depositional environment Regional differences in relative sea-level changes are recorded and the effect of depositional environment upon δ13Ccarb values is observed. "New...
""Resolution of relationships at lower taxonomic levels is crucial for answering many evolutionary questions, and as such, sufficiently varied species representation is vital. This latter goal is not always achievable with relatively fresh samples... Our "Resolution of relationships at lower taxono...
"Tomographic techniques are expensive and often time consuming. Cephalopods are an ideal object for such studies though. This manuscript aims to infer the number of conch measurements needed to characterize ontogeny. Nautilus pompilius was used for thiscase study and the authors came to the conclus...
"Recent advancements in tomographic techniques allow for detailed morphological analysis of various organisms, which has proved difficult in the past. However, the time and cost required for the post-processing of highly resolved tomographic data are considerable. Cephalopods are an ideal group to ...
"In the eastern Anti-Atlas of Morocco a Famennian Thylacocephalan Layer is exposed. Thylacocephalans occur in great numbers and in a study a new taxon (Concavicaris submarinus n. sp.) was discovered. This is the oldest record of thylacocephalans from Africa. Using micro CT the specimen revealed imp...
"Thylacocephalans are enigmatic arthropods with an erratic Palaeozoic and Mesozoic fossil record. In many of the few localities where they occur, they are quite abundant. This also holds true for the Famennian Thylacocephalan Layer in the Maider (eastern Anti-Atlas of Morocco), a small epicontinent...
