Type material. The original descriptions of Olenellus gilberti were based on three specimens (USNM 15411a-c) from from USNM locality 31a, a dark shale with thin

9 interbedded limestones in the Pioche Formation at Pioche, Nevada (Meek in White 1874; White 1877, figs. 3a-c; Walcott 1910, pl. 36, figs. 1-3). The best preserved of these syntypes (USNM 15411a; figured by White 1877, pl. 2, fig. 3b; Walcott 1886, pl. 19, fig. 2; Walcott 1890, pl. 85, fig. 1b; Walcott 1910, pl. 36, fig. 1) is herein selected as the lectotype, and the other two specimens (USNM 15411b [figured by White 1877, pl. 2, fig. 3c; Walcott 1884, pl. 21, fig. 14; Walcott 1886, pl. 19, fig. 2b, pl. 20, fig. 4; Walcott 1890, pl. 85, fig. 1d, pl. 86, fig. 4; Walcott 1910, pl. 36, fig. 2; Shimer & Shrock 1944, pl. 253, fig. 3] and USNM 15411c [figured by White 1877, pl. 2, fig. 3a; Walcott 1886, pl. 19, fig. 2a; Walcott 1890, pl. 85, fig. 1c; Walcott 1910, pl. 36, fig. 3; Shimer & Shrock 1944, pl. 253, fig. 2]) become paralectotypes. Rocks matching those containing the type specimens of O. gilberti occur in the uppermost Combined Metals Member, within the upper portion of Upper Dyeran depositional sequence III or within depositional sequence IV of Webster (2011b), in the banks of a mining roadcut on the northeastern flanks of the Pioche Hills, immediately southwest of the town of Pioche (personal observation; Fig. 1). This age assignment is consistent with other occurrences of O. gilberti (below), and is further supported by the fauna associated with the type specimens. USNM 15411 is a lot collection that also contains (unfigured) specimens of O. chiefensis Palmer, 1998, O. fowleri, and O. terminatus Palmer, 1998 in addition to O. gilberti (personal observation). within another lot collection, USNM 15412, were also collected from USNM locality 31a and are preserved on shale slabs that are lithologically indistinguishable from those containing USNM 15411a-c. Collection USNM 15412 contains at least four specimens of O. gilberti and at least two specimens of O. terminatus (personal observation). An assemblage containing O. gilberti, O. chiefensis, O. terminatus, and O. fowleri is typical of the uppermost Dyeran (Webster 2011b).

Occurrence. NEVADA: Pioche Hills, Lincoln County. USNM locality 31a (type locality), limestone and interbedded siliceous shales of the Pioche Formation, just above the quartzite on the east side of the anticline, near Pioche, Nevada (see Meek in White 1874; also Walcott 1910, 1912; Sundberg & McCollum 1997). Palmer in Merriam (1964) also reports occurrences in USGS collections 1391-CO, 1392-CO, and 1399-CO from Pioche Divide and the Pioche Hills, although none of the figured material from these sites

10 unambiguously represents this species (Palmer 1957, pl. 19, figs. 9, 18) and these supposed occurrences have not been verified. Highland Range, Lincoln County. Several horizons within the One Wheel Canyon section (see Webster 2011c for detailed occurrences). ?USNM locality 30, western slope of the Highland Range, 8 miles (12.8 km) north of Bennett’s Spring and about 8 miles (12.8 km) west of Pioche, Nevada (based on a tentatively identified specimen [USNM 15416a] figured by Walcott 1886, pl. 21, figs. 1, 1a; Lesley 1889, pl. 21, figs. 1, 1a; Walcott 1890, pl. 84, figs. 1, 1a; Walcott 1908a, pl. 2, fig. 1; Walcott 1910, pl. 36, fig. 9; Grabau & Shimer 1910, fig. 1555c). All confirmed occurrences are in the upper portion of the Combined Metals Member, Pioche Formation. Deiss (1938; subsequently copied by Wheeler & Lemmon [1939] and Wheeler [1940]) also mentioned an occurrence in the Highland Range, although this material was not illustrated and the supposed occurrence has not been verified. Chief Range, Lincoln County. Several horizons within the Ruin Wash section (see Palmer 1998, 1999a; Webster & Hughes 1999; Webster et al. 2008; Webster & Sheets 2010; Webster 2011c; herein) Several horizons within measured section E at Klondike Gap (see Webster 2007c for detailed occurrences). All occurrences are in the upper portion of the Combined Metals Member, Pioche Formation. Burnt Springs Range, Lincoln County. Several horizons within the Hidden Valley section (see Webster 2007b for detailed occurences; also Palmer 1998; Webster & Hughes 1999; Webster 2009b; herein). Several horizons within the Seven Oaks Spring section (see Webster 2009b for detailed occurrences). All occurrences are in the upper portion of the Combined Metals Member, Pioche Formation. , Lincoln County. Several horizons within the Oak Spring Summit section (see Webster 2011c for detailed occurrences; also Palmer 1998, 1999b; Webster 2009b). Several horizons within the Grassy Spring section (see Webster 2009b for detailed occurrences). All occurrences are in the upper portion of the Combined Metals Member, Pioche Formation. Callaghan (1937) also mentions an occurrence within an isolated block of shale faulted in quartzite, probably within 300 feet of the base of the Pioche Formation, 1.7 miles northeast of Delamar, although this material was not illustrated and the supposed occurrence has not been verified. Groom Range, Lincoln County. Several horizons within the Combined Metals Member, Pioche Formation (see Webster et al. 2011 for detailed occurrences; also Sundberg & McCollum

11 1997). Walcott (1886) reported an occurrence near the south end of the Timpahute Range in the Groom District, although this material was not illustrated and the supposed occurrence has not been verified. Frenchman Mountain, Clark County. Several horizons within the Pioche Formation, Lake Mead Boulevard section (see Webster 2011d for detailed occurrences). Desert Range, Clark County. Tentative occurrence in USGS collection 3696-CO, lower portion of the Pyramid Shale Member, Carrara Formation (see Palmer & Halley 1979). Clayton Ridge, Esmeralda County. UCR 10273, 0.95 metres above the base of the Emigrant Formation, Split Mountain West section (see Webster 2011e). ?USNM locality 1y, fine, arenaceous shales in small buttes in Clayton Valley, about 3 miles (4.8 km) southeast of Silver Peak, Nevada (based on a tentatively identified specimen [USNM 56826a] figured by Walcott 1910, pl. 36, fig. 6). : Marble Mountains, San Bernardino County. Several horizons within the Cadiz Formation (see Webster et al. 2003 for detailed occurrences). Clark (1921), Mount (1974, 1976, 1980) and Fritz (1975) also mention occurrences from here, although these include supposed occurrences within the Latham Shale that are now assigned to a new species (see below). Eagle Mountain, Inyo County. USGS collection 3681-CO, lower portion of the Pyramid Shale Member, Carrara Formation (see Palmer & Halley 1979). , Inyo County. USGS collection 3698-CO, lower portion of the Pyramid Shale Member, Carrara Formation, Titanothere Canyon section (see Palmer & Halley 1979). Funeral Mountains, Inyo County. USGS collection 2304-CO, lower portion of the Pyramid Shale Member, Carrara Formation, Echo Canyon section (see Palmer & Halley 1979). Several horizons within the lower portion of the Pyramid Shale Member, Carrara Formation, Pyramid Peak section (unpublished data). Palmer & Halley (1979) document an occurrence within USGS collection 4153-CO from the Thimble Limestone Member of the Carrara Formation at the Echo Canyon section, but this supposed occurrence represents a new species (see below). Resting Springs Range, Inyo County. USGS collection 3676-CO, lower portion of the Pyramid Shale Member, Carrara Formation (see Palmer & Halley 1979). Olenellus gilberti has also been reported from the upper Prospect Mountain Quartzite of the Eureka district, Eureka County, Nevada (Wheeler & Lemmon 1939; Wheeler 1943), USNM locality 16g at the Paymaster mining camp, Esmeralda County,

12 Nevada (Walcott 1910), USNM localities 1i, 1l, 1m, 1o, and 1p in the Barrel Spring section, Silver Peak region, Esmeralda County, Nevada (Walcott 1886, 1908b, 1910), the upper Saline Valley Formation and Mule Spring Limestone of eastern California and western Nevada (Nelson & Durham 1966), Tucki Mountain, Inyo County, California (Hopper 1947; Wheeler 1948), Emigrant Pass in the Nopah Range, Inyo County, California (Mount 1980), the Oquirrh Range, Utah (White 1877; Hague 1883), the Portneuf Range, Idaho (a tentative identification by Fritz 1975), the Proveedora Quartzite, Sonora, Mexico (Stewart et al. 1984; McMenamin 1987), USNM locality 60c at Ptarmigan Pass, Alberta, Canada (Walcott 1910), USNM locality 35e, near Lake Louise, Alberta (Walcott 1910, 1912), USNM locality 35h, on Mount Bosworth, British Columbia, Canada (Walcott 1910), Kicking Horse Lake, British Columbia (Walcott 1886), USNM locality 57i, Mount Stephen, British Columbia (Walcott 1910), and USNM locality 61d, Mount Shaffer, British Columbia (Walcott 1917). However, no material was illustrated to support these identifications and the supposed occurrences cannot be verified. Several other supposed occurrences can be definitively rejected based on more recent taxonomic revisions. Material formerly assigned to O. gilberti from the Eureka district, Nevada (Walcott 1884, 1886) has since been reassigned to O. nevadensis and indeterminate olenellids (Walcott 1910; Palmer & Halley 1979; Webster 2007c). Material from locality 1085 at the Campbell Ranch section in the northern Egan Range, White Pine County, Nevada (Fritz 1968) was tentatively assigned to O. gilberti in the original, but possesses ocular lobes that are too long and is thus excluded from this species. A supposed occurrence at Locality 30a’ in Big Cottonwood Canyon, Wasatch Mountains, Utah (Walcott 1886, 1910) was later corrected by Walcott (1912). Material from locality 35l at Ptarmigan Pass, Alberta (Walcott 1910) possesses procranidial spines and has since been excluded from the species (Palmer & Halley 1979). Material from locality 35f on Mount Stephen, British Columbia (Walcott 1908a, 1908b, 1910) and illustrated by Walcott (1910, pl. 36, figs. 15-17) can only be identified as indeterminate olenellids. Material from locality 35n on Mount Odaray, British Columbia (Walcott 1916, pl. 45, fig. 3; Walcott 1917, pl. 9, fig. 4; Norford 1962, pl. 1, fig. 8) has since been reassigned to an indeterminate species of Olenellus (Palmer 1998). Material from locality 43318 near Rogers Lake, British Columbia (Norford 1962, pl. 1, fig. 9) has since been reassigned to

13 an indeterminate species of Olenellus (Palmer 1998). Material from the Eager Formation near Cranbrook, British Columbia (Best 1952; Hu 1985) has since been reassigned to a new species of Olenellus (Palmer 1998). Poulsen (1927) tentatively identified O. gilberti from the Cape Kent Formation of northwest Greenland, but the illustrated specimens are not identifiable to even the level. Palmer & Halley (1979, p. 72) reassigned to O. gilberti specimens from locality 807c in the Buelna Formation of the Buelna Hills, Sonora, Mexico, that had originally been figured as “Olenellus truemani” by Lochman in Cooper (1952, pl. 18, figs. 9, 10). However, these specimens are inadequate for species level identification. Palmer & Halley (1979) documented an occurrence within USGS collection 4168-CO from the Carrara Formation at the Salt Spring Hills, California, but this supposed occurrence represents a new species (see below). Palmer (1998) included within O. gilberti specimens from both the ‘Bristolia Zonule’ (now Arcuolenellus arcuatus Zone through Bristolia insolens Zone, following Webster 2011b) and the uppermost Dyeran (now Bolbolenellus euryparia Zone and Nephrolenellus multinodus Zone, following Webster 2011b). Palmer (1998, pp. 667-668) noted that morphologically mature specimens from the stratigraphically lower interval possess a distinct intergenal spine (rather than an intergenal node or swelling) and slightly more abaxially located posterior tips of the ocular lobes relative to those from the stratigraphically higher interval, but considered these differences to be of subspecific value. Subsequent work, utilizing many new collections from both intervals, indicates that the older forms consistently differ from the younger forms in these and other traits, and that the stratigraphically lower morphotype should be recognized as a new species (“Olenellus aff. gilberti A” of Webster et al. 2003; “Olenellus n. sp. 3” of Webster 2011b; to be formally described elsewhere). All confirmed occurrences of O. gilberti are therefore in the upper portion of the Bolbolenellus euryparia Zone and overlying Nephrolenellus multinodus Zone of the southwestern United States, within upper Dyeran depositional sequences III and IV of Webster (2011b, fig. 12). Locations of these sites are shown on Fig. 1A. The present paper focuses on collections from Hidden Valley and Ruin Wash only (see Material, above); geographic and stratigraphic variation within this species will be explored in a future work. Burling (1914) defined an “Olenellus gilberti zone” that was characteristic

14 of the lower portion of the Pioche Formation in eastern Nevada and in Utah. However, this was based on an overly inclusive concept of the species (e.g., Walcott 1886, 1910; see above), and Burling’s (1914) zone would surely extend far beyond the currently accepted stratigraphic range of O. gilberti (Webster 2011b).
