A new crustacean from the Herefordshire (Silurian) Lagerstätte, UK, and its significance in malacostracan evolution
Cascolus ravitis gen. et sp. nov. is a three-dimensionally preserved fossil crustacean with soft parts from the Herefordshire (Silurian) Lagerstätte, UK. It is characterized by a head with a head shield and five limb pairs, and a thorax (pereon) with nine appendage-bearing segments followed by an apodous abdomen (pleon). All the appendages except the first are biramous and have a gnathobase. Th...
متن کاملAn exceptionally preserved myodocopid ostracod from the Silurian of Herefordshire, UK.
An exceptionally preserved new ostracod crustacean from the Silurian of Herefordshire, UK, represents only the third fully documented Palaeozoic ostracod with soft-part preservation. Appendages, gills, gut system, lateral compound eyes and even a medial eye with a Bellonci organ are preserved, allowing assignment of the fossil to a new genus and species of cylindroleberidid myodocope (Myodocopi...
متن کاملA new probable stem lineage crustacean with three-dimensionally preserved soft parts from the Herefordshire (Silurian) Lagerstätte, UK.
A new arthropod with three-dimensionally preserved soft parts, Tanazios dokeron, is described from the Wenlock Series (Silurian) of Herefordshire, England, UK. Serial grinding, digital photographic and computer rendering techniques yielded 'virtual fossils' in the round for study. The body tagmata of T. dokeron comprise a head shield and a long trunk. The head shield bears six pairs of horn-lik...
متن کاملReconstruction of the Herefordshire (Silurian) Lagerstätte Biota Previous Track Record
The four scientists associated with the project have formed a cohesive team working on the Herefordshire Lagerstätte since 1999. During the course of this ongoing project, initially funded by NERC (GR GR9/3132 and GR3/12053) and later by the Leverhulme Trust (F/08581/E), we have developed and honed a pioneering set of software techniques to reconstruct the Herefordshire fossils from optical tom...
متن کاملNebalia gerkenae, a new species of leptostracan (Crustacea: Malacostraca: Phyllocarida) from the Bennett Slough region of Monterey Bay, California
—A new species of leptostracan crustacean, Nebalia gerkenae, is described from Bennett Slough, Monterey County, California. The species is similar to N. hessleri from deeper waters off La Jolla, California. It differs from N. hessleri in the shape and color of the pigmented region of the eyes, armature of the antennule and antenna, the degree that the carapace covers the abdominal somites, dent...
