Evolutional trends and palaeobiogeography of the Ordovician trilobite
Received Accepted Ovalocephalus has a long stratigraphic range and wide geographical distribution in Ordovician peri-Gondwana. Based largely on the well-preserved specimens recently collected from China, all known forms are revised and listed. Phylogenetic analysis was conducted on the genus, involving 10 species. As suggested by the strict consensus tree, evolutional trends of the genus includ...
متن کاملBeecher's Trilobite Bed Revisited: Ecology of an Ordovician Deepwater Fauna
Beecher's Trilobite Bed in the Frankfort Shale of New York State preserves an exceptional record of the benthic macrofauna of a Late Ordovician deepwater marine environment. It has long been famous for specimens of the trilobites Triarthrus eatoni (Hall), Cryptolithus bellulus (Ulrich), Primaspis crosotus (Locke), and Cornuproetus beecheri (Ruedemann), new combination, which preserve the ventra...
متن کاملA synopsis of Ordovician trilobite distribution and diversity
Ordovician trilobites are reviewed based on a new species-level relational database. The stratigraphical ranges of all 56 families with occurrences in the Ordovician are documented and the content, phylogenetic status, diversity and Ordovician distribution by major palaeocontinent/terrane are discussed. Aspects of higher classification are also dealt with. Global sampling is heavily biased towa...

متن کاملThe Ordovician Radiation: A Follow-up to the Cambrian Explosion?
There was a major diversification known as the Ordovician Radiation, in the period immediately following the Cambrian. This event is unique in taxonomic, ecologic and biogeographic aspects.While all of the phyla but one were established during the Cambrian explosion, taxonomic increases during the Ordovician were manifest at lower taxonomic levels although ordinal level diversity doubled. Marin...
