Anisian (Middle Triassic) Ammonoids from North America: Quantitative Biochronology and Biodiversity
Anisian (Middle Triassic) ammonoids from North America: quantitative biochronology and biodiversity Claude Monnet and Hugo Bucher Paläontologisches Institut und Museum, Universität Zürich, Karl Schmid Strasse 4, CH-8006 Zürich, Switzerland email: [email protected]; [email protected] ABSTRACT: This study synthesizes and revises the ammonoid zonations as well as their correlation with each other for western Nevada (USA), British Columbia (Canada), and the Sverdrup Basin (Canada) by utilizing the unitary association method. Based on a standard- ized taxonomy, the Anisian in the studied areas contains 13, 10, and 3 zones and a total of 174, 90, and 7 species, respectively. The zonations are correlated by means of a ‘common taxa zonation’, which includes all taxa common to the studied basins. This leads to new and more precise correlations, which are at slight variance with those of the literature. Hence, the Buddhaites hagei Zone (Canada) corre- lates only with the Intornites mctaggarti Subzone (Nevada) and not with the entire Acrochordiceras hyatti Zone (Nevada). The Tetsaoceras hayesi Zone (Canada) appears to correlate with the Unionvillites hadleyi Subzone (Nevada) of the hyatti Zone and not with the Nevadisculites taylori Zone. The Hollandites minor Zone (Canada) more than likely correlates with the taylori Zone (Nevada) rather than the Balatonites shoshonensis Zone as is usually acknowledged. The unitary association method enables us to quantify the diachronism of the studied taxa, which affects about 67% of the genera and 18% of the species common to Nevada and British Columbia. Therefore, this diachronism is significant and its value for correlation should not be overlooked. -

THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS PALEONTOLOGICAL CONTRIBUTIONS May 15, 1970 Paper 47 SIGNIFICANCE OF SUTURES IN PHYLOGENY OF AMMONOIDEA JURGEN KULLMANN AND JOST WIEDMANN Universinit Tubingen, Germany ABSTRACT Because of their complex structure ammonoid sutures offer best possibilities for the recognition of homologies. Sutures comprise a set of individual elements, which may be changed during the course of ontogeny and phylogeny as a result of heterotopy, hetero- morphy, and heterochrony. By means of a morphogenetic symbol terminology, sutural formulas may be established which show the composition of adult sutures as well as their ontogenetic development. WEDEKIND ' S terminology system is preferred because it is the oldest and morphogenetically the most consequent, whereas RUZHENTSEV ' S system seems to be inadequate because of its usage of different symbols for homologous elements. WEDEKIND ' S system includes only five symbols: E (for external lobe), L (for lateral lobe), I (for internal lobe), A (for adventitious lobe), U (for umbilical lobe). Investigations on ontogenetic development show that all taxonomic groups of the entire superorder Ammonoidea can be compared one with another by means of their sutural development, expressed by their sutural formulas. Most of the higher and many of the lower taxa can be solely characterized and arranged in phylogenetic relationship by use of their sutural formulas. INTRODUCTION Today very few ammonoid workers doubt the (e.g., conch shape, sculpture, growth lines) rep- importance of sutures as indication of ammonoid resent less complicated structures; therefore, phylogeny. The considerable advances in our numerous homeomorphs restrict the usefulness of knowledge of ammonoid evolution during recent these features for phylogenetic investigations. -

64. the Akiyoshi Orogenic Cycle in the Mongolian Geosyncline*. by Teiichi KOBAYASHI
306 [Vol. 18, 64. The Akiyoshi Orogenic Cycle in the Mongolian Geosyncline*. By Teiichi KOBAYASHI. (Comm.by T. KATO,M.I.A., June 12, 1942.) Since Schonmann had expressed the opinion in 1929 that the Mongolio-Amur Faltengurtel had been a geosyncline which was disturbed by late Mesozoic orogenses, it was a moot question among geologists, as discussed by Stille, Obrutschew and othersl'. It is the object of this paper to demonstrate that the Akiyoshi, instead of the Sakawa, cycle of orgenesis2' is responsible for the oronization of the Mongolian geosyncline. A thick Palaeozoic complex for which I proposed the name , Mammo ( i) group3', is the sediment in the geosyncline existing between the Altenseheitel and the Yenshan orogenic zone. Because it is one of the least known but nevertheless one of the most important f ormational unit in the geology of Eastern Asia, I have paid special attention to it since I studied a small collecl,ion of fossils from Soron in the middle part of the Great Khingan range in 19314'. On the basis of fresh evidences which we obtained in Manchoukuo, its stratigraphic succession can now be roughly sketched as follows : 1. The lowest of the group so far known is the Ordovician Orthis sandstone of the Tyktaminda on the Siberian side of the Upper Amur valley where it is overlain by the Gotlandian Galymene manly shale. In the same area there is a good display of the fossiliferousDevonian formation composedmostly of shale and limestone in the lower part, of marl, limestone and reef limestone in the middle and of limestone in the upper parts). -
