biostratigraphy late early cambrian - late cambrian successions in kamar siah section (southeast kerman) on the basis of trilobites
cambrian sediments are widely exposed in the kerman province. parts of these deposits are containing trilobite fossils. one of the suitable areas for paleontological studies is kamar siah section. this section located about 60 km north east of kerman. these sediments have 200 m thickness with fossil invertebrates of trilobites, brachiopod, gastropods and stromatolite which includes kuhbanan and...
متن کاملMetamorphism of Late Neoproterozoic-Early Cambrian Schists in Southwest of Zanjan from the Soltanieh Belt in Northwest of Iran
Late Neoproterozoic-Early Cambrian schists have been occurred in southwest of Zanjan city from the Soltanieh belt. The Soltanieh belt in northwest of Iran is uplifted basement of Precambrian-Paleozoic in main central Iran zone and includes outcrops of Precambrian, Paleozoic and Mesozoic Formations. Late Neoproterozoic-Early Cambrian schists, the oldest stratigraphy unit in the region, consist o...
متن کاملHumble origins for a successful strategy: complete enrolment in early Cambrian olenellid trilobites.
Trilobites are typified by the behavioural and morphological ability to enrol their bodies, most probably as a defence mechanism against adverse environmental conditions or predators. Although most trilobites could enrol at least partially, there is uncertainty about whether olenellids-among the most phylogenetically and stratigraphically basal representatives-could perform this behaviour becau...
متن کاملControls on Gut Phosphatisation: The Trilobites from the Weeks Formation Lagerstätte (Cambrian; Utah)
Despite being internal organs, digestive structures are frequently preserved in Cambrian Lagerstätten. However, the reasons for their fossilisation and their biological implications remain to be thoroughly explored. This is particularly true with arthropods--typically the most diverse fossilised organisms in Cambrian ecosystems--where digestive structures represent an as-yet underexploited alte...
متن کاملStrength in numbers: High phenotypic variance in early Cambrian trilobites and its evolutionary implications.
Analysis of the degree of intraspecific morphological polymorphism during the evolutionary history of trilobites using an informatic approach(1) provides striking evidence of a long-suspected but previously unsubstantiated pattern: degrees of polymorphism are markedly higher in phylogenetically basal, stratigraphically early species. This unequivocal pattern prompts further exploration of the r...
