Die Rudisten (Bechermuscheln) Von St
Die Rudisten (Bechermuscheln) von St. Bartholomä in der Weststeiermark Teil 1 Version 4 – August 2017 Die St. Bartholomä-Formation („Zementmergel-Folge“) des Gosaubeckens von Kainach – St. Bartholomä, ihre Rudisten und ihr größerer Rahmen (i.w. Campanium, Oberkreide, ca. 70-85 Millionen Jahre vor heute) Eine Literaturzusammenfassung Einleitung Altertümliche, exotische Muscheln in St. Bartholomä in der Weststeiermark? Etwa 20 km südlicher, um St. Josef, ja, da gibt es 15 Millionen Jahre alte Austern und Venusmuscheln und viele mehr. Aber von diesen ist hier nicht die Rede, sondern von einer Gruppe von Muscheln, die in der Zeit der Saurier und Ammoniten lebte und heute völlig ausgestorben ist – und die noch dazu gar nicht wie Muscheln aussahen. Es ist die Rede von den Rudisten, den Bechermuscheln, die aus der Gegend um St. Bartholomä schon fast seit den ersten geologischen Erkundungen um die Mitte des 19. Jhdts. bekannt sind. Sie verstecken sich ein wenig, aber beim Spazieren in den wenigen Gräben, in alten Steinbrüchen und in manchen straßennahen Felsen der Gegend kann man ihre mehr oder weniger auffälligen, teilweise sehr gut erhaltenen Reste doch immer wieder entdecken. Zuerst jedoch ein Überblick über diese exotischen, lange vergangenen Zeiten und ihre Wesen. Die Zeit der oberen Kreide – die Erde als „Thermalbad im Treibhausklima“ Gegenüber dem heutigen Zwischeneiszeitklima war die Zeit der Oberkreide, etwa von 100-66 Millionen Jahre (Ma) vor heute, Großteils eine Zeit des Treibhausklimas. Die Lufttemperaturen waren durchschnittlich um 10°C höher als heute und die Meerestemperaturen erreichten in den Tropen möglicherweise Spitzenwerte von 42° C – zu heiß zum Baden; und selbst die Temperaturen in der Tiefsee lagen zeitweise über 20° C. -

(Bivalvia, Hippuritida), a new canaliculate 11 rudist from the Cenomanian of Slovenia: 12 Abstract 13 Ichthyosarcolites was amongst the first rudist genera to be described. Nineteen species 14 have been assigned to this genus since its introduction in 1812, all from shallow-marine 15 tropical carbonates of Albian and Cenomanian age (mid-Cretaceous). Almost all 16 nominal species suffer from vague original descriptions, and some forms were 17 inaccurately assigned to the genus. Several species were defined on the basis of the 18 number of flanges along the shell, such as Ichthyosarcolites rotundus , I. monocarinatus , 19 I. triangularis , I. bicarinatus , I. tricarinatus , I.MANUSCRIPT alatus and I. polycarinatus . An analysis 20 of the relative position of the flanges on the shell by hierarchical clustering helps with 21 taxon definition. Two species with a single flange are here recognised, one with a dorsal 22 flange ( I. monocarinatus ), the other with a ventral one (I. triangularis ). There is no 23 consistency in flange distribution on the shells whatever their number is, i.e., two or 24 more, and homology of individual flanges cannot be demonstrated. -
Synoptic Taxonomy of Major Fossil Groups
APPENDIX Synoptic Taxonomy of Major Fossil Groups Important fossil taxa are listed down to the lowest practical taxonomic level; in most cases, this will be the ordinal or subordinallevel. Abbreviated stratigraphic units in parentheses (e.g., UCamb-Ree) indicate maximum range known for the group; units followed by question marks are isolated occurrences followed generally by an interval with no known representatives. Taxa with ranges to "Ree" are extant. Data are extracted principally from Harland et al. (1967), Moore et al. (1956 et seq.), Sepkoski (1982), Romer (1966), Colbert (1980), Moy-Thomas and Miles (1971), Taylor (1981), and Brasier (1980). KINGDOM MONERA Class Ciliata (cont.)

Rudist Bivalves (Hippuritoidea) from the Clifton Limestone (Lower Campanian) of Western Jamaica and a Reassessment of the Genus Vaccinites in the Americas
Carnets Geol. 21 (14) E-ISSN 1634-0744 DOI 10.2110/carnets.2021.2114 Rudist bivalves (Hippuritoidea) from the Clifton Limestone (Lower Campanian) of western Jamaica and a reassessment of the genus Vaccinites in the Americas Simon F. MITCHELL 1 Abstract: The lower Campanian (Upper Cretaceous) Clifton Limestone of Jamaica yields three species of hippuritid bivalve: Barrettia ruseae CHUBB, Whitfieldiella luceae sp. nov. and Vaccinites vermunti MAC GILLAVRY, and the plagioptychid: Plagioptychus sp. The hippuritids are described in detail using statis- tics. Barrettia ruseae is demonstrated to be a more primitive species of Barrettia than B. monilifera WOODWARD or B. multilirata WHITFIELD, and the species Whitfieldiella luceae is shown to be a more primitive species of Whitfieldiella than W. gigas CHUBB. The specimens of Vaccinites from the Clifton Limestone are compared with populations of Vaccinites from elsewhere in the Americas, and five spe- cies (probably representing a single evolutionary lineage) are recognized: V. alencasteri sp. nov. (?late Turonian-?Coniacian), V. martini MAC GILLAVRY (probably early to mid Santonian), V. macgillavryi PAL- MER (probably mid to late Santonian), V. vermunti MAC GILLAVRY (earliest Campanian), and V. temazcali sp. nov. (late early Campanian). The Vaccinites species can be distinguished using statistical tech- niques. The ages of the Clifton Limestone and the five Vaccinites species are reviewed. This research demonstrates the value of using hippuritids for biostratigraphy in the Upper Cretaceous of the Americas.

SKELTON Department of Environment, Earth and Ecosystems, The Open University, Milton Keynes MK7 6AA, UK ([email protected]) ABSTRACT. An updated phylogenetic classification of rudist bivalves is proposed for the revised Bivalvia volumes of the ‘Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology’. Already formalised as Order Hippuritida Newell, rudists are divided between two new monophyletic suborders established herein, Requieniidina, comprising all taxa attached by the left valve, and Radiolitidina, encompassing all those attached by the right valve. The Requieniidina contains one superfamily, Requienioidea Kutassy, consisting of a -
To Study the Upper Cretaceous Sequence Is of Outstanding Importance for the Geological Under Standing of the Sümeg Area
Upper Cretaceous by J. H aas and E. J.-E d e lé n yi To study the Upper Cretaceous sequence is of outstanding importance for the geological under standing of the Sümeg area. It is in this area that the best-exposed sequences of the Central Range Senonian are found, exposures enabling the student to determine the intricate space and time rela tions o f the lithostratigraphic units and to detect the regularities, interrelations, involved. In the course of our work the major problem to be solved was to find out the kind of regularity involved in the space and time range of the rock units observed while doing field surveys for the geo logical map and studying the sequence of a number of artifical exposures and to specify the paleoeco- logical and geohistorical model responsible for the formations therein. For the solution of these problems it was indispensable to develop a stratigraphic synthesis based on an up-to-date approach. The lithostratigraphic calibration was regarded as a particularly im portant task, as progress in this respect was believed to have lagged behind progress in biostratigra- phic knowledge. Exploration history In his travelogue of Hungary, F. S. B eudant (1822) described Hippurites- and Badiolites-bearing limestones “ from a hill to the east of the town, in its immediate vicinity” (supposedly from the Köves domb) to which he referred as “ Kalkstein von Sümeg” and which, with a reference to analogies with France, he classified as Jurassic limestones. F. H auer (1862) was the first to distinguish Cretaceous lithostratigraphic units of formation character in the Bakony Mts. -

This genus should therefore be transferred to the Hippuritidae. The structure of the pillars, the ligamental ridge and the outer shell layer of the right valve as illustrated by Keywords: the type material point to an affiliation either with Hippurites or with Hippuritella. We discuss this Rudist assignment by taking into account the similarities with Hippurites organisans (de Montfort), Hippuritella Bivalvia Orestella lapeirousei Goldfuss and Hippuritella variabilis (Munier-Chalmas).
